We went there to collect mushrooms. I felt like I am in a forest the first time in my life. I didn't found a single one. I mean, how, if there's so much to see? So I gave up after a few minutes and took this image.
Anyway, we had enough to eat. Would have been enough if one is looking for mushrooms. Latvia is full of it. If you keep your eyes on the ground ;-)
Instead of just the proper lens, I used those Lentar Tele-Wide add-on lenses from my Landcamera. That gave the effect, together with some shift and whatever.

and as I couldn't made it to this spot
where I felt like I am in a forest the first time in my life within the last six weeks, I did submit this 'old' and beloved one to the
my favourite landscape project
- for the beauty of the Baltics
- for the colours of 59 back then
- for the joy of large format photography
- for a possibly
future of instant sheet film photography
