How did I miss this one?? Beautiful job with the light through the petals. :thumbup:
I'm waffling over cropping out the little stem....but I think I like it! Film or digital, Jeanette? A classic all its own in B&W, but I keep thinking how lovely this would be with some toning. Make a stunning lith print, too. :sexywink:

Thanks, terri!
It's Acros in Rodinal. I have not used rodinal in a while, so I had to remember to be 'gentle' with it! Acros can be pretty tempermental in rodinal. It's 35mm film too, so I'll probably not enlarge it past 8x10.
My only concern taking it into the darkroom is the evil DUST!! AUGH!!! :gah: hahaha
But I should be able to control the tones easier in there...the darkroom that is. ;) I don't yet have the patience for lith... but I'll dink around with some tooning in Silver Efex & see how it looks. Good idea! Thanks!

I keep telling myself that I’m gonna use my close-up attachment for the Rollei and never do. Nice job on the flower pics. Tulip wins the bar fight I think.

If you make a regular print to "dink around with" (<---love that!) think about a very gentle copper tone, too. :shivers:
