Just Leaves

[RPippin]

Playing around in my living room with an old Calumet 4X5 I picked up a couple of years ago for about $50.00 and an old Dagor lens. Foma 100 film, don't remember the f stop or speed.

Sorry for the large size



Corn Lilies, Mount Rainier National Park (last weekend)
Tachihara 4x5, Caltar II-N 150mm, Ilford FP4+ in HC110(h)
Scanned from a contact print.

I don't know how those of you who routinely produce actual silver prints can deal with posting JPGs online (which is all I typically do). As soon as I saw the contact print of this I loved it! Scan it and put it online... ugh, it just doesn't compare. I don't expect others to love this particular photo (of course I hope someone likes it) but I'm sure some of you can relate to that feeling.

I know the feeling. Try adding the texture of a watercolour paper into the equation.

Tyler I have to admit I quiet like your photo even though it's only a jpg :-)

good work

mdm - I can't even imagine. I find it really tough to actually find REAL prints to look at (silver, digital, or otherwise) anywhere, and hate to think I'm missing out on just seeing photos online.

MDR - Thank you much!

Grape leaves - 4x5 - FP4+ - little geronar 150mm - Print scan - Oriental MG FB

(Mounted my last 'good copy' of this and can't find my notes to make another - so this is one of the re-work prints, trying to match originals - still a grade or so off - lost my shadow depth)

Comments - Critique - Welcome - Thanks
