Looks like something I might have shot.  I'll leave it to others to
decide if that's a compliment or not.  

FWIW, I think it's pretty cool.

Hi!

It's clear to me what you're trying to do.  Maybe that's because I've done
similar things with film (often with Kodak's 2475 Recording Film) developed
in Acufine.  It's not too important what the structure is, although it
might have been nice to know.  I'd like to see the print when we next get

This photo was taken hand-held with my pocket camera, the Panasonic  
LX1. It's an ISO 200 shot, mostly pretty hideously underexposed to  
obtain a very "rough" look. The web page version shows rather more  
banding than the print does, though: the print is very rich, so much  
ink it took nearly 5 hours to dry down properly. I think I hit total  
saturation on the Epson Enhanced Matte paper! ;-)

I really like this one, but I've got a distinct soft spot for low-light 
semi-abstract work, especially with a bit of grain involved.

Yes, thank you for your comment.

What it's a picture of is my apartment building. But that's not  
really the point. I was looking to express the particular "air" or  
feel one experiences when on a dark night's walk. The 8x10 inch print  
is full of deep tones and subtle gradations that are difficult to  
express in a web-rez rendering.


Go ahead, savage away if you feel you must. ;-)

Kinda looks like a block of apartments to me.

I don't mean to be rude, but that looks like something taken with a
