I don't see flaws...just awe! Love how that shed is so part of the land, is low, unobtrusive.
 
Everything about this print is just incredible. My only quibble is that I wish the valley topography were a little different so the shed faced the photographer more fully, but I don't think that can really be blamed on the printing process... :smile:
 
Is this the old print with some flaws?
Think it looks great. The very special light rays that looks as made by a hand rather than by a camera makes it perfect with this paper and toning.

Thank you guys for kind comments; I think my dodging and burning as well as coating the emulsion are better this days:wink: hence I think I should be able exploit potential of this negative better on the next approach. Happy New Year to all of you!
 
This is a great composition and love the way the road leads the eye into the mountains. However, I think the colour tone and screen effect (could be the digital reproduction) does not help. I think this picture would look much better as a darker toned, more contrasty image.
