gravel road - early morning light

I wish to announce that this image has, until further notice, 'made my day' (despite that it is raining 'cats and dogs' outside here in Philadelphia).

Herbern, this gem of a town in NW Germany, is not only beautifully portrayed in this (tonally perfect) photo, but causes me to want to move there right now from the City of Brotherly Hate. The distant haze, which, happily, the UV filter did not fully conquer, lends a three-dimensional quality that almost forces one 'to need' to physically cross that stone bridge in order to enter Golconda.

I demand that macfred send me a Lufthansa ticket, pronto. - David Lyga

@David Lyga Hahaha, I absolutely agree!!
Andreas, I'll need five tickets ;-)

Cheers

This is a wondrous and simple photo - I sure notice the delicate range from darker midtones to glorious highlights.

But just to be clear: this was B&W film developed in C-41?

Very nice!

@David Lyga Thank you, David for the very kind words on my photograph. If you ever have the chance to visit Germany, I'll be proud to thake a walk with you.

@Gimenosaiz Thank you, Antonio ! It would be nice to meet you and yours someday !

@Colin Corneau Yes, this is Neopan 400 CN (out of production for some time = I have 40+ rolls in my freezer) developed in C-41 color process - it's a chromogenic film (just like Ilford's XP2 Super) designed to be developed in color process C-41.
It can be deloped in ordinary b/w chemicals too.

@John Galt Thanks, John - I appreciate.

Father-in-law is going strong ...

Again, the timing was superb with this. The ducks and man are placed appropriately and the contrast is correct. I honestly do not mind the lack of clouds. - David.
