This feels like film with a medium format aspect ratio. Nice one.

Thanks Alan for your comments and you are right this is a medium format film image taken with the Rollieflex SL66 and the 80mm lens. The image was taken in 1978 in Spring. The negative was scanned recently and the digital file processed in Photoshop.

Very nice!
This is so funny! Well to me at least. I looked at your image of the Mittens and thought that this looked like a film shot. Then when I scrolled down, I found I was correct in my thoughts.
The Mittens are such a fun pair of rock structures that can be lined in so many ways. How you captured them worked really well.

Those mittens are so photogenic. Nice work with the scan and processing.

Thanks Jameel, I agree the mittens are very photogenic. I was pleasantly surprised that a clean digital file could be pulled from an over 45 year old color negative. Now I know what I will be doing on spring snow days!
