Not a 52 Print Challenge _ Snowy High Country Print

[gcowan]

I can't commit to a 52 challenge as I will be travelling for a few months this year.

This is sitting one my wall, pinned up while I consider how to improve it. Original shot on Hasselblad XPAN, Fuji Velvia 100 slide film with a 50mm lens and scanned full frame on Epson V700. The print is 320mm x 850mm is on Canson PhotoSatin, but is destined for Canson Velin Museum Rag paper.

Beautiful, Graham, I like the light on the side of the rocks and in the distance. Sky looks a bit too blue to me.

Nandakumar, John, Kindachishota and Lindsay thank you.
Lindsay, I agree with you about the blue, but in the alpine region the blues are very blue and I used Fuji Velvia film I think, and that is very saturated. When it is scanned and adjusted, the blue is very close to being outside the gamut of the colour space I used when I scanned the slide. When the file is reduced for display the colour variation between cyan and blue is not very smooth.
It looks OK in the print though.
I am thinking of re-scanning the slide as I have learned a lot about scanning since my initial scan.
