[Leica] Jeffery - PAW - Week 1

[jsmith342 at cox.net (Jeffery Smith)]

I see what you mean. It may be a "dirtiness of the bricks" problem. The
water from my rain gutter dumps its load on the driveway on the left side of
the picture. The left side doesn't get "hosed" very often. I also did a bit
of burning on the left side, and it may have brought out a bit more detail.

Picture is pretty nice. It's hard to tell from a web pic of course, but the 
film/developer combo seems fine. Nice tonal range, good sharpness, not much 
grain. Again, hard to say for sure on a web pic, but what more can one asks 
for? :-)

re: sharpness, something slightly odd? The picture seems to have good 
amount of DOF, with the car in the back and the two women in focus, but the 
lower right side is blurred? Is it a scanning problem?
