Revisiting film

This is the beautiful ante-bellum home, Oak Alley, in Vacherie, Louisiana. I took this many years ago with film. Unfortunately, there is now a concrete walkway down the center of the grass. It's not terribly ugly, but something was lost in the romance of this 300-year-old alley of oaks. It seems that all over the world, people just can't leave history alone. An ultra-modern glass pyramid was built in the Louvre in Paris; a walkway and soundstage were installed in the Coliseum in Rome; a horrible wooden boardwalk was built in the ruins of Angkor Wat in Cambodia; and on and on. Photoshop can address many (but not all) of these issues, so at least that's a comfort. When we all shot film, our settings were never recorded because we didn't have metadata, but from memory I used a 250mm lens on a Mamiya RZ 67 medium format camera. This is equivalent to about 135mm in a full-frame digital camera. I would have used f/22 because complete depth of field was imperative (if the foreground trees were even slightly out of focus, the picture would be ruined), and I always used Fujichrome Velvia 50 when photographing architecture and landscapes for maximum sharpness and minimum grain (i.e. noise). My shutter speed would have been around 1/8th due to the diffused light, and with that camera I always used a cable release and a tripod.
