Description
This image was captured on black and white film with a 4" x 5" (negative size) large format Pinhole Camera. A pinhole camera is basically just a box with a tiny hole and a place to put the film. No lens, no electronics, no viewfinder. Just a box and the photographer.
The Coot Bay pond in the Everglades National Park is one of the many lakes in the park.
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, National Wilderness Preservation area (for the most part), 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. It is the only park on the planet with 5 designations.
