going to leave it alone as it captures the subject nicely. Up close
it looks like a fresco.

Loris,
WHat a beautiful print.
Thanks!
While the colors are not photo-realistic, they are
absolutely convincing. What I mean is that if you were to post the
original photo we would say that your interpretation is so
different.
Well, I think that is the point to print a "different print". I
just adore
the background that has a mix of random pigmentation.
Me too, that's why I chose to keep it -> it may not work for other
images,
but it doesn't ruin this one.
It seems that your stripe pattern is only evident in the magenta
negative.
It is quite distractive from the randomness of the background. I
wonder
why that is the case.
It's because of the paper negative (some have this type of
pattern)...
It seems that you have arrived at a very balanced combination of
pigment
ratioes, gum thickness and exposure/development.
Do yo need any more encouragement?
Hope to see some more work
Thanks much, will definitely try foam roller later (expecially for
larger
prints).
Regards,
Loris.
