We were supposed to be at this park for 3 days; but my wife was ill when we arrived and we left this morning. I did manage to shoot a roll of film between last night and this morning at first light. Some are ok.
no. 1 Evening light 85mm Zeiss Planar F/11 1/30 Portra 160

no. 3 Because shadows were so deep and flag so bright, it looks better in black and white. Cropped and aspect ratio altered from negative

Very pretty given your time constraints, Hope your wife is ok
She is on the mend, thank you. She's loves going camping; but she's also happy to be home and getting better.
What struck me is how the color palate of this film changes depending on the intensity of the sun. In the golden hour photos, there is a definite red overtone that is not really realistic; but also not unpleasant. Yet the same film in the cemetery shots, where the sun was not so intense, has a more "realistic" palate. Interesting. Thanks for taking a look.
