Palladium print on gampi paper from a 8x10 negative.
I took a photo of the print. It's too large for my scanner and
I didn't want to crumple the paper. It is so thin!

Since we live in the same city I can offer to scan it for you. You know how prints get left inside the scanner so many times... That would be a shame... For you 😁😁😁😁

I really like the way you concentrate the emulsion around the figure and then fade out towards the edges with all those swirls.

I cannot imagine what your success to failure rate is but these two are fabulous.

For what its worth, I particularly like the first one - the centre to edge transition seems to be more progressive

Wonderful image, Andrew.
Reminds me of the work of "pioneer" photographers !

There's also a great feeling of dimensionality to the image.

Thank you very much, Dennis. It's a hell of a hike up to the trestle with all that heavy gear... and then scrambling over to a narrow outcrop with vertical drop to my left, right, and front.. it was so narrow, that I had to use a mirror in order to set the aperture on the lens. My knees were knocking and I think I lost 10 pounds from sweating!

I love me some trestles, but what is the "alternative" part? Semi-stand?

oops missed that bit. Carbon transfer...
