I'm sure the young love birds spending time beneath this tree thought their carvings would last longer than they actually have, not that many of them have returned to verify. The tree is turning their marks into scars over time, and these mysterious forms are in some way more interesting, I think, than the originals. The Fujifilm GA645Zi is a really nice camera to bring along on a hike. With the slow speed film I used on this occasion, it is kind of hard to tell whether this is a digital or a film image. These days, I'm tending to prefer more grain and other analog properties in my film images. If I want a grainless high fidelity look, I can achieve that with one of my digital cameras.
