Obviously you have found a way of working and seeing which produces consistently interesting, quiet almost meditative images. However, every time I read, "Tri X", in the caption; I wonder, "Why 35mm Tri X for this type of work?" It seems that 100 or slower film in 35mm format would offer a negative which would allow you to print at sizes which these images would ultimately cry out for. I keep wondering about your ultimate print size and use. Do you print these as little 5x7 jewels? or? > -- ============================================================ Hi George, I never print them, they only see the light of day on the LUG. I use Tri X because the inevitable filter can cost as much as three stops exposure and I also use the 90mm and 135mm hand held with filters. Thank you for your comments particularly "little jewels", I kinda like that :-) - --Graham - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
