Alien Landscape



Comments made by the photographer

Submitter's name: Mike Butler
Title: Alien Landscape
Gear used: OM-2s + Kiron 105mm f 2.5 Macro @ 1:1
Diaphragm: f16
Shutter speed: 1/125
Film used: Costco 200 ASA Print Film.
Technical information: Shot hand held, but heavily braced in a crouch on top of the subject. Since the surface was relatively flat I could sacrifice depth of field to allow the use of natural light and lack of a tripod. I was not about to lug a tripod on that hike.
Subject information: Two different "flavors" of Lichen competing for territory on a rock atop Mission Peak (2517', 767m) in Fremont CA.

Comment left by: Scott Nelson (snelson@hcfa.gov) Cosco print film and a Kiron 105 macro -- another photographer demonstrates excellent results on a budget.

Comment left by: Michael Virsinger (mikev@virtechsolutions.com) Currently, the planet Mars is one of the jewles of the night sky as it is the closest to Earth since 1988. This photo reminds me of a shot of the surface taken from orbit. Very interesting.

Comment left by: Anonymous Visitor Pretty and abstract. Also reminds me of a few morning "gifts" from the furry children in my house. Colors here are striking.
