Jane

I am posting this for two reasons: 1) I want to know what you think (!) 2) as an example of a point raised in the current thread in the forum about why we don't offer critiques of others' work very freely http://www.apug.org/forums/showthread.php?t=33910

My intention in making this photo: a) to portray the sophisticated and elegant nature of my model Jane and to render on film/paper some of the 'atmosphere' of her personality. b) to reinforce this technically by choosing liquid emulsion on watercolour paper rather than standard photo paper.

I would appreciate your comments on whether my technique is sufficently well executed to reinforce my intention and whether the choice of medium adds to or detracts from the image as a whole.

Thanks,
Mark
Equipment Used
Bronica S2A 75mm Nikkor-P
Film & Developer
APX100 in Rodinal
Paper & Developer
Liquid Light and watercolour paper
A beautifull portrait by strong lighting, very elegant as has been commented upon, though I would have liked to have seen just a little of the eye in shadow.
A one eye model is not flattering I feel.
Still, a fine portrait.
