Nice, give an interesting sense of place.  What lens did you use?  Ther's a
touch of vignetting at the top right corner.  On my monitor (Mac
StudioDisplay 17", Gamma 1.8) it looks a touch dark.  Would be interesting
to see what it would look like shot with a yellow filter.

I believe it was shot with the 35/1.4 pre-asph. I have a yellow-green filter
for this lens, but I didn't have it with me at the time. I noticed the touch
of vignetting also. I'd have to check the neg to see if it shows up in the
other corners. I don't recall offhand what aperature I was using. I have to
admit that it is also possible that a tip of my glove may have intruded just
a touch. The picture was shot at Sun Mtn. Lodge near Winthrop, WA. The
little ice rink in perched at the top of a steep slope with great views up
the valley and towards Mt. Gardiner

Orginaly I had my monitor (intel/windoz machine) roughly calibrated to match
the output on my Epson 1200 printer, using Epson inks. I'm now using MIS
inks and the monitor no longer matches the output. I need to spend a little
time calibrating everything for both printer output and web display.
