Thank you for your kind words.? "High Key" does enlarge nicely, although I
doubt it would go the 14.5 X 18.5 I've gone with other images which were
capture from a tripod mounted e-1.? I like to title my images and these titles
often become an important part of the whole.?? This was such a title/image.
The second images is a contact print of the original negative and is from a 6X9
format on 120 film.? It was printed on vellum paper and does, because of the
platinum/palladium emulsion and the translucent vellum paper, have a wonder
three dimensional look.? The print, when not mounted on a nice white mat board,
does not have the same magic.? This could have been done with a digital
negative, which I intend to attempt in the future.? It also has me breaking out
the 4X5 gear.? This process can be done without?a darkroom (although you will
want a room without florescent or sun light)?and without much more equipment
than a few trays and and a contact printing frame.)? This was my first attempt
at this process and imagine it will be one I'll use in the future.?

The "High Key" is grown-worthily amusing in title, but also great in
itself. It's a similar type of image I'd take in subject and composition
(if not in quality :-) ). I know it's only a small image, but I suspect
my mind is extrapolating its "blown-up" qualities correctly. <g>
With the other one, it's harder to extrapolate, but it certainly has
this cat's curiosity aroused. I *really* would like to see it in print
form (the with 'High Key' but moreso here), as it gives the impression
of being quite contemplative and "dreamy".
Okay, so you don't need my opinions - the acknowledgements of quality
have already come in their placings. I just needed to spend at least two
paragraphs to say "Nice" and "Congratulations". ;-)
Cheers,
Marc
