Printed on Ilford matte paper and sepia toned. Michael's Critique Dennis' photograph is of a type that is typical of a certain school of large-format photography. Tonalities are beautiful, everything is ultra-sharp and a large print is, I'm sure, a pleasure to look at. This image is strictly a straightforward pictorial representation of a certain place at a certain time. It serves only a documentary record.
Landscape photography has to have emotion.
This image unfortunately conveys none to me . You can add your own comments on Dennis' photograph on the Critique section of our Discussion Forum . Picture was taken from the smaller of the two lakes at Reflection Lakes, Mount Rainier. I arrived on location about 30 minutes prior to sunrise and waited till I had some light on the tree tops and detail in the mist. I knew the trees would go black without some light on them, I also knew the snow capped mountain was going to be a challenge also and could easily wash out.
