i spent several hours last saturday in the photography section of half price books. found a real gem called "fifty" by dana buckley. amazing, sublime, wonderful platinum print work.

i decided to see if i could do something similar, but without all the stanky darkroom stuff.

I agree...I like #3 best. That's a cool look you have going there. I had mentioned in another thread that I liked the look of Ansel's photos in print. I think there's somethign special about seeing a photo in print versus on the screen. Ansel printed with extremely high silver content, and it looks damn cool. I'm sure this platinum look is very similar. I'd like to see these in print.

Good stuff

thanks for the good words! i love black and white and all it's challenges and flavors. for something that, on the surface, is so simple, it's complexities are endless.
