This is a beautiful image. I'm loving reading about your use of paper negatives.

Thanks Bob, for me it was like instant pictorialism. I have 5 unopened boxes of this Grade 0 Glossy, Single weight Ilford Contact Paper. That's 500 pieces of treasure to me. I lightly copper toned this in Nik, but the straight inversion was lovely too. I always find myself in a dilema with toning, both have merit, but publishing online just makes it seem like a mouse click and they cancel each other out. In reality i would like to publish both, and in reality that is no different to what a printer would do in an analogue sense...............so I see I have digital issues to work thru.......more counselling LOL. Thanks for the kind comments on my article on paper negs. www.ipernity.com/blog/kiwivagabond/501429 Much appreciated.........Easter Friday today, a little cloister of time to maybe shoot some paper or develop some prints.......a photographic monastery.......theres an idea..........Harry Potter styles maybe...........or somewhere in Ireland like Iona...............
