“The Subway” Arca Swiss Rm3di with Phase One IQ180 back and Rodenstock 40mm HR lens, 7 seconds at f/16, iso 35
Two shot stitch by shifting back 12mm each direction, back is horizontal
Recently I was able to make the hike into one of the most iconic locations in my home state of Utah, the Subway in Zion National Park. As with many first time visits I wasn't quite prepared, but I managed to get some images I like. The one at the top is my favorite, which is a 2 shot stitch with my Arca Swiss Rm3di and IQ180 back, shifting the back 12mm each direction. After working on the image for a while in Photoshop, I saved it. The progress bar moved slowly until it hit about 97%, at which point I was greeted with this dialog box …

Wayne Fox’s career as a full time professional photographer began in 1976. He holds both the Master of Photography and Photographic Craftsman degrees from the Professional Photographers of America. In 1981 he founded Fox Professional Color Lab, a full service printing facility for professional photographers, and in 1987 cofounded Kiddie Kandids, which grew to be a national chain of children’s portrait studios. An early adopter of technology, he began working with both digital capture and output systems in the early 90’s. By 1996 his lab was producing several major product lines using digital output devices, and in 1998 opened four studios which used exclusively digital capture and output. By 2001, the entire chain of over 100 studios as well as the color lab had been converted to 100% digital capture and output.
In 2005, Fox sold his businesses and retired. Escaping from the daily challenges of running a large company renewed his passion for photography and his time is now spent creating landscape and nature images. While he does sell a limited number of pieces, his current pursuits are to satisfy personal interest and pleasure, and as such he continues using various capture, post processing, and printing technologies.
