Carbon Print. As a side note, I reprinted this neg last week. Only one attempt that was about 1.5 to 2 stops too dark. Only lost shadow detail was directly under the large rocks and it was interesting to see that all of the water has detail. Interesting to know I can bring it out, but prefer the version presented here. The small size of the image (4x5) means that the area of white water lacking information is itself small and visually/mentally (to me) does not need information to 'work'. And there is a 'feel' that there is some form to the water that we can't see...perhaps due to the fact that the area is not actually blocked up from exposure/development.
