Bill -

Thank you for sharing these lovely shots.  I am inspired to take my Pentax 645n and some 100 ASA film to a nearby woodland and see what I can "rustle" up.

Wow, Bill, one can almost feel the detail in these.  Great tonal range & compositions.  Crisp.  Couldn't be better.

These are beautiful! If you haven't already, you need to print these up LARGE and frame them for display - maybe even do a panel with all four of them together.

On my to do list over the holidays. I was planning to print the images posted above on the new Ilford MGIV Art 300 paper. I have a couple boxes of 8x10 sheets.

These are GREAT shots Bill. I second Joe's comment, they do need printed up.

I love the "metallic-ness" of these shots.

The film and developer combo seem to work really well together, and you can obviously "see" well with the Rollei.

"Hilton Falls On" what?  That's what I first thought when I saw the title.  But then I figured, short for Ontario?  Did I get it right?  Smiley

Bill, 16 Mile Creek is something I'd like to see framed and hanging up in my house!  I love the way you've shown the movement of the water, and the strange archway ruin in the background.  All of them show beautiful tones and textures, but that's my fave.
