Nice abstract, Brian, and the tree shadows are perfectly placed.

Very nice reflections and graphics. Very well done.

Love the tones in this Brian (as well as the composition). And hasn't Delta 100 come out well in Rodinal.

Thank you Pete. Amazing the difference in grain between this and the beach shot I posted the other day. Both cooked up in the same pot.

I guess it probably is indeed available in the UK, Peter, but perhaps not under that name. Arista is a house brand for Freestyle Photo Supply which is based here in Los Angeles. However, I think Arista EDU is rebranded Fomapan. (Their Arista Premium--which they no longer have I think--was rebranded Kodak, either Tri-X or Plus-X, depending on which ASA you wanted.)

I like the tones and composition on this a lot, Brian. I think I might crop the left edge slightly to remove the first evergreen with the flare on it as it tends to distract my eye quite a bit. Another option might be to crop down the left edge quite a bit to remove all of the tall evergreens, emphasizing the more abstract nature. Nice shot regardless, though.

 

[Dave Green]

Ay I like that - simplistic but not too simple - if that makes any sort of sense at all

 

[Tom Dunne]

I like the sheen of the wall and especially the soft, ghostly shadows of the trees. Really attractive shot.

Thanks a lot, Keith. That little flare on the left bothered me slightly also so your comments and suggestions are right on. Thanks again.

Makes perfect sense. Thanks, Dave. Much obliged!
