[QUOTE="STM, post: 253959, member: 12827"] This one goes waaaay back, 1985 in fact. I got up at 4am and hiked about a mile to the site. I kept taking meter readings with my spot meter until the sun got just high enough above the horizon to illuminate Ranier but leave the foreground in shadow. I knew the EV difference between the two was going to be a lot so I metered on the foreground to put it in Zone IV and used N-1 development to prevent blocking of the detail in the snow. It was taken with the F2, 85mm f/2 Nikkor and Panatomic-X film on a tripod. I cannot recall the exposure but I remember it being a long one using the F2's self timer to set exposure. [/QUOTE]
