Canyon Toad (+revised)

Revised Version

Revision 1 (latest)

What changed: Basically I cleaned up the back area that somehow was affected in the original post. I actually had trouble finding the original post that I think I posted the wrong image initially. This is the correct image.

Added after receiving feedback from the community.

About This Image

This was taken in the Grand Canyon many years ago on a hiking trip. I think this was near the mouth of Nankoweep Creek. This was taken with an old Nikon FTN and I think it was a 200mm telephoto Soligor? And I think it is an agrochrome.

Feedback Requested

Is it too dark?

Technical Details

Camera: Nikon LS-4000 Color slide scanner

David: I really like this. The pano crop works well and I love the atmospherics and the DOF management that you have as well. A really nice find and a fine capture. >=))>

David, the toad looks good. The pano crop also looks good. I am surprised about the lack of detail in the upper right.
