For the first time, I spotted someone else carrying an M6 (Titanium?) but didn't get a chance to stop and chat-no slight intended! I was headed in the other direction, carrying my chrome M6 and Heliar lens. Lovely area, though I found it a challenge to frame up an ultrawide composition in a hurry and though the spotlights of sun in the dark forest look appealingly theatrical, I guessimated a 5+ stop contrast range (nice time to have a 4x5 and some TMY exposed at 100) so with the handheld camera, I mostly photographed the forest canopy high overhead with no worries about details in the sky or whether the trees would show up as silhouettes--nice snapshot, I think. - -- Jeff Segawa Somewhere in Boulder, Colorado
