You have shown a quiet image of an attractive teenager attending to a muffin. You couldn't quite control the contrast in the scene but for a family image who cares? In three or four years when your daughter goes off to the University of Michagan and becomes an American football fan you will treasure images such as this one or the many you took at your breakfast table. Next time you have a date with your daughter load your camera with a film such as Acros that is very forgiving of high contrast scenes in dilute developers. Or try using Rodinal at something like 1-100 to control the contrast. Don don.dory@gmail.com On 10/2/05, dlridings@gmail.com <dlridings@gmail.com> wrote: > > Warning. It breaks the rules.
