Blood on a brilliant white background. Blood is both fresh (red) and dried (brown) ---not paint.
My problem is how do I get the blood to look like blood and not chocolate syrup ( a la Wee Gee) with b&w film?
I'd like to accentuate the details of the white background
(which is statuary) while accurately recording the streaks of blood. I'll be using existing light---daylight---outdoors.
Kind of a strange subject, either the work of some prankster(s), cult, or ...? but certainly a worthy subject for an 8x10----or is this one of those "mission impossible" photographs, like making a pizza look on on b&w film?
Its a long drive (ga$) for me so I want to stack the deck in favor of a decent negative.
TIA
