Description
This small un-named pond in the lower British Columbia mainland in Manning Provincial Park had a perfectly still surface, reflecting the conifers and marsh grass on the far shore. Lilly pads without their blooms were floating on the surface. Diffuse soft light through the overcast sky uniformly illuminates the scene.
This image is made from a 66mm black and white photographic negative and a 50mm wide angle lens on an old school medium format film camera. I think that combination contributes to the overall classic feel of this photograph.
