Hi... no, today's photo is the quarry pond in Pinnacle Mountain State Park in Little Rock.

The pond at OT MM210 is in one of my adopted sections of the OT (Friends of the Ouachita Trail). I know it very well. This photo: bsky.app/profile/dism... was taken at the OT MM 210 wildlife pond.

When the water was too shallow to run the rapids in a canoe loaded with gear, we had to guide the canoes through using the bow/stern ropes. Called "lining" the canoe. Fun times.

This panorama is amazing! It's an outstanding composition and photograph even without considering that its from a pinhole camera, but its especially amazing for a camera without glass.

Agree, every step is an experiment. Thanks!

Correction... this is the camera used to make the above photo, from Zero Image (612B) (not Vermeer).

Thanks! Agree about foveon cameras. Its difficult to define but there's something different (in a good way) about the way they render fine detail and color.

As a viewer of your photograph, I was also instantly drawn to the gloominess of the scene. Wonderful composition, as it is.
