Half and Half

[Brian Moore]

Meg studying for finals.

Mamiya C33 and Ilford HP4 Plus. Developed in Caffenol-C-M.

And here she is with too much sun in her eyes.

That is just lovely Brian. Just enough light coming off the book to lift the shadows in the upper part of her face without creating strong refections in her glasses. I bet there's even a tiny bit more detail in the book if you looked isn't there?

A very relaxed (although shouldn't she be stressed out?) and natural portrait.

Thanks, Pete. She was stressed out, and it took a bit of coaxing to get her to consent to a fotie. (But once she consented and emerged from hiding under the dining room table she was putty in my hands and I put her here and there for the benefit of photography.)

 

[Pete Askew]

Hang on a sec. Where did that second one come from?!

Nice again and I like the pose etc. I guess these are hand-held.

Thanks, Dave. Its Meg actually. But, as long as she has access to her mobile phone she doesn't care what I process her foties in at all. Strange that! Thanks again Dave.

Threw it in as an afterthought, Pete. Yeah, hand-held. Thanks, Pete.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Both beautiful, Brian. I really love these new shots. Wonderful light and detail. And I see nothing wrong with the processing.

 

[Stephen McCullough]

I like them both. The light is handled so well. The little smile in the second one is perfectly captured.

Much appreciated, Rob. Thank you. These two appear to have survived the developing debacle unscathed I think. (I should probably first check with Old Eagle Eye Askew on that, though.)

Thanks for the comments, Stephen. Much appreciated.

Superb as usual Brian, like the casualness of them.

They're both so lovely and natural Brian, but that first one is a stunner

Thank you so much, Lesley!

 

[Pete Askew]

I go as far as to say a stonker even!

That high praise indeed! (I think.) Thank you, Pete.
