Doug Gorsline > It took an entire full-size box of saltine crackers to get this shot of seagulls occupying every post at the turnaround at Nye Beach in the Oregon Coast town of Newport. I shot this with my Mamiya 645 on negative film. I used the 150mm f/2.8, which was a very fine lens. In those days, with that equipment, extreme depth of field wasn't an option, so the best alternate was to focus on the largest gull's eye and let the rest go soft.

Doug Gorsline > This is an uncommon rear view of the famous rusty coupe at Bodie. It's usually shot from the front. I wanted to do something a little different, the light was better from this side, and I liked framing the mine site through the windshield.
Doug Gorsline > Looking down the Columbia River toward Portland from Crown Point. No filter was used; smoke from forest fires created the reds and oranges in the sunset.

Doug Gorsline > This is Black Pool, a hot spring at West Thumb Geyser Basin. This photo was taken with a Mamiya 645 and the Mamiya 24mm full-frame fisheye lens. Here, the use of the fisheye allowed me reveal the depths of the pool while placing the Black Pool in the context of its surroundings. Many people look at fisheyes as a gimmick, but I see them as a very useful tool.
