thank you Svend! yes I made a few mistakes with this exposure but I learned a lot so now I will take the concept further and make more mistakes. btw, the grain of this Neopan is extraordinary - very difficult to focus 4x5 on the enlarger (because it is so tight and small) ;)

Nice. I wish more people would use many exposures to work against photographic sameness: all those long-exposure glassy seas, all those misty waterfalls, etc. Bryan I really like the foliage here, the play of light is beautiful and the painterliness wonderful. Definitely territory to explore more, I'd say! I've tried Neopan too, it's a nice film -- nice tight grain, good contrast, exposure latitude. Quite similar to Tri-X I think. Rgds, Svend

the toning is straight from the paper -- has a subtle warm tone. I wish I made the negative different though. place the shadows on ZIV and then give the negative N-1 develop... would be much more luminous I think. and maybe it would help balance out the limbs. I'll try to print with a soft grade next :)
thank you Giuliano!!!

Gracias Ann!! that is exactly what I was after :) incidentally, I was laying on the ground for this photo so the view is indeed straight up.

uhhhhh yes? ha ha ha It's a beautiful pic, like you could stand below the tree and look up spinning round and get all dizzy! It's got a great feeling to it. In short: I like it! :)

thank you Matej. Yes, I agree with you on the balance. In the print, I burned down the smaller branches (heavy magenta) trying to give more weight to them... I'm afraid it is still a little off balance though.

32 exposures? holy cow, does your finger hurt? lol! Lovely, I like the motion and movement it seems to have. I hope that's what you were going for. have a great weekend! Ann

The leaf texture is very beautiful. Compositionally, I find certain disbalance in how the thick branches in the top left steal too much attention from the rest of the photo. As for technique, this is what I call a real photograph.
