Great portrait!
Do the dry plates you make accentuate the freckles in people? Only reason I ask is because sometimes I shoot paper negatives for this reason but I really like the look of your dry plates.

Thanks all.

axs810: Yes, they do. My dry plates only see UV and blue, so her freckles are not near as prominent to the Mk I eyeball (tho she is a redhead).

This makes me want to go on ebay and hunt for some long-expired EPR64! Alas, a quick ebay search reveals no Catherines available...

Mark, give me your adress. I'll send you back a box of expired EPR64. Catherine hates to be boxed and mailed, sorry...

Deardorffuser - excellent portrait. Love her natural expression. Must have been a brisk day - the motion of the clothing just adds to it. You must use a sturdy tripod!
