Just Leaves

[chassis]

h20man, very nice. I like the tones, lines forms and mood. Pretty much everything. What was the exposure?

A well-worn subject, but one I never tire of shooting:

Thanks for the compliment, chassis. I've got sort of my own homebrewed way of developing that generally seems to work. I shot that with HP5+, rated 240. f32 1/3 with a 150mm lens, for 1 second. I then used what I think is N+2 development in D-76. Something like N+4 might have been more appropriate, but I just expand the contrast some more when "developing" in Lightroom. I have a similar image from a year ago that is a bit higher key, but I think I like this one a bit darker. Since posting it, I have decided to lighten it up a little, but not much.

Just got back from an outing with a friend to shoot more corn lilies (and some other stuff).

That's beautiful, Daniel - up to your usual high standards. I like the choice of crop, and everything else as well.

DItto on that. This really needs to be seen on a calibrated monitor, because so much of the content is the lovely tonality.

Thank you, h2oman and Ken.

All the best,
Daniel
