Situated at over 10,000 feet in the Flattops Wilderness Area of the White River National Forest, home to the largest free-ranging elk herd in the United States, Adams Lake reflects the rays of an emerging sun in its rippled surface on a crisp fall day. Taken with a Koni-Omega Rapid M medium format camera employing a 58mm f5.6 wide angle lens on Kodak film, this unspoiled lake of raw beauty is a magnet for fishermen and 4WD enthusiasts. Though only a modest distance from Glenwood Springs “the way the crow flies,” more than three hours of rugged 4×4 trail driving is required to arrive at this place from the nearest paved road. The original image of this scene made on Kodak E-3 Ektachrome color transparency film was digitally scanned more than fifteen years ago. A recent look at the original image, now badly faded, attests to the fragile nature of organic film dyes and the need to accelerate my efforts to scan the earlier important images in my archive before they become unrecoverable.
