Description
This image was captured on film with a large format pinhole camera. A pinhole camera has no lens, no view finder, and no electronics. just an empty box with a hole on one side and film on the other
The Everglades National Park is a subtle place where earth, water, and sky blend in a low green landscape; where mere inches of elevation produce distinct changes in vegetation; and where a great wealth of birds and other wildlife find refuge. For this is almost exclusively a biological park dedicated to the preservation of a complex and precisely ordered living mechanism. It lies at the interface between temperate and sub-tropical America, giving a rich diversity of species, many at the limit of their ranges.
With its special significance to the Nation and the world recognized by making the Everglades a National Park, an International Biosphere Reserve, a World Heritage Site, and a Ramsar Wetland of International Importance, its preservation for the benefit of present and future generations is better assured.

9 mile pond? Shouldn't that be 9 mile lake...great exposure! Was this one shot with the 4X5? The foreground is really soft vs. the background. Was this due to a short exposure?
