Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L Aperture Series @ 70mm: Cottonwood in Alabama Hills Drainage, View to Mt Whitney

This aperture series from f/2.8 to f/11 is with the Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS USM at 70mm with subject matter at medium to far distance. It was chosen to complement the findings in the other 70mm series as well as to compare to the same scene at 50mm.

Here seen from the Alabama Hills, 14504' ~= 4421m summit of Mt Whitney is seen near center, the highest peak in the lower 48 states. Not far away in the Inyo Mountains to the north and east is White Mountain Peak at 14252' ~= 4344m, a far easier climb (and one of the few that can be legally mountain-biked).

I was not feeling well and so it seemed a struggle to make images this day. What I really felt like was making a handful of medium-format or large-format images with a long lens (eg 120mm to 250mm on Fujifilm GFX100S) with that cottonwood and Mt Whitney. Or better yet, the PhaseOne IQ4 150 with Schneider Kreuznach LS 240mm f/4.5 IF. But I had neither.
