Thanks guys. I had another shot a few minutes later and the light had totally gone.

This one came out like crap but I don't know why. It looks as if I shot it against the sun which was not the case.

You're right Gary. Didn't think of that, thanks!

Ramiro, this is worth a re-shoot or some photo shop work. Just looks like some flare or light from a large image circle bouncing off the inside of the bellows, did you use a lens shade?

[Ramiro Elena]

You're very right. Aside from Gary's comment which is correct I also noticed that flare. That's why I mentioned it looked like shooting against the sun.
Part of the problem might reside in the fact that I had the darkslide pulled out for around a minute or two waiting for all the people, bicycles and cars to pass by. My bellows might not be all that light tight. Even the darkslide dropped down an inch and a half cropping part of the frame.

I was trying not to go back but now that you mentioned it I'll have to.

Critiques are always welcome. I'm personally pretty happy with how white the leaves turned out.

Looks nice!
Can you give us some details? Film? Developer? EI?

[sensy]

Thanks for the compliment!

The details are: Graflex Super Speed Graphic, 135mm, f32, red filter, Fomapan 100. Exposure time somewhere around 12 seconds I think. R09 1+50 for 8 minutes, with 5 seconds agitation every 30 seconds.
