Thank you Aron! Indeed, the trip was good and very productive! And I agree with you, the Snøhetta pavilion is a wonderful little gem! One more:

I know we're only supposed to say nice, useless things about everything posted to these "sharing" threads but I have to say that these photographs look out of focus to me and there's also obvious ghosting in the middle one. Is this perhaps a function of your scanning?

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be
a mile away and you'll have their shoes.
Thank you for the comment! As for the "out of focus", and also the "ghosting", you are right - they *are* out of focus, and there is also some ghosting (I am surprised you notice it only in the middle one…). There is a full explanation at my site, but in short: I use two negatives for each print, one in focus, the other one completely blurred ("twice infinity"). Of course, you might like the result, or not
I think it's quite an interesting approach. You totally have me with the library and especially that squat little chapel. I don't care for the effect when applied to the more modern structure between the others. I think my opinion might have been different if you had rendered the shadows and therefore the shape of the structure with more contrast. To my eye, it gets lost and turns a striking structure to visual mush. I look forward to seeing more.Thank you for the comment!

Do you expose each record the same? Depending on the subject, say on a building without a lot of contrast or very strong details that survive the blurring, you could underexpose the soft record to diminish the strength of the softness.
