Oak at Crane Creek Regional Park. This is a 5x7" straight print. Besides the leak on the lower right, there is a strange blurriness which makes an interesting effect... the center of the print jumps out. Under the "tree arch" the print looks extremely sharp. Too many possibilities: * it was the last frame, so maybe the film lost tension? * Shot at 1/50, which is slower than I've tried with this camera? * Sometimes this camera has smaller DOF than I expect? This was F11. Who knows? But it looks sort of dreamy.

I walk by these oaks very often. Just on the other side is one of my favorite views in all of Sonoma County. This is a straight 5x7 print. I'm very new at this but this print came out better than I expected. On a whim this roll was shot entirely "sunny 16" with no metering at all, and this one looked like it would be the most difficult to print so I did it first. Little did I know it was going to happen, but my old Weston meter has just stopped working, so now I'll be shooting this 120 folder "sunny 16" for a while longer whether I want to or not! I guess I'm glad for the practice and also some confidence because most of the frames came out just fine.
