A view of a stream in Muir Woods. This photograph captured in February, 2000 was taken by Jim Epler during the winter in San Francisco, CA in a grove of redwood trees in Muir Woods. It is cataloged under the terms nature, woodland scenes and lakes & rivers in this photography database.
The image was exposed on 35mm Kodak GOLD 200 color film stock using a Pentax Asahi Spotmatic II camera with a Asahi Pentax 55mm f/1.8 lens.
Photographer Comments: The focus on the original photograph is very soft due to camera shake. I should have used a tripod for all of these shots in Muir Woods. The funny thing is, I seem to remember lugging a tripod around with me on this little excursion but deciding against using it because of the foul weather. I probably figured it wasn't worth setting up the camera in the rain for fear it might damage my camera. It was the PCISL (Pre-Canon IS Lens) period. In hindsight, I wished I HAD taken the time to set up my tripod; that is, IF I had it which I'm not really sure of anyway!!
