Taken on film back in the 1970s with a 65mm Schneider Angulon on a Linhof Technika with a 6cm by 9cm roll back. Back then you took your time focusing the lens on a ground glass with an 8 power magnifier using a black cloth or jacket covering your head while peering at an upside down reversed image. A quick shot took about half an hour to compose and determine your exposure with a light meter taking readings at selected spots. Tripods were a must, just as long pants to traverse the underbrush.

Beautiful photo. Is this 120 Kodachrome? I never had the opportunity to shoot it.

I also never got around to Kodachrome in 120. Most likely in those days it would have been Kodak VPS negative film in daylight balance with an ASA of about 100.

Beautiful shot, and an impressive amount of effort that went into taking it. Thanks for sharing!
