This is a detail I came across on a tree while on a day trip with APUG members to Dun Na Ri woods. I have turned the photo in to the vertical format in order to lend emphasis to the eye effect.
really nice, it works. Is this a crop? I only ask because I see it's Delta 400 and I see some grain, so I've never used the 400 but I have used the 3200 and haven't seen that much grain, I love it, it's sharp as hell, just some grain in the shadows but not sure if that's due to the printing process or what. It's not a negative comment (har har) just curious.
Thanks for your comments everyone.@ StoneNYC - Yes this a cropped shot, I would reckon that I removed about a quarter of the original shot. I use Delta 400 35mm film most of the time because there is so little grain apparent in the finished result. I notice that I forgot to record that I develop my film in stock ID11 for 9.5 minutes. If you check out some of my recent uploads I think that you might agree with me. In comparison I find that HP5 + is too grainy for my liking.
Thanks, interesting, and I tend to like HP5+ and it's grain and its tone but don't shoot it often as despite liking the grain, I like in-grain better lol. Thanks for the info.
