Frozen grass - Negative Image

I was looking at the negative thinking that it maybe looks better than the print. Or maybe they are both too contrasty.

Hi Will - I like the composition greatly. The grass and the angle of approach pull the eye into the photo quite effectively. As far as the contrast, on my monitor (a good Mitsubishi Diamond Pro) the contrast of the print looks quite a bit too low. Seat of the pants evaluation of the neg, I would say about the same. Given the fact that we are talking about frozen white stuff, I would expect to see lots and lots of really high density on the neg. If you have another roll of the same session yet to develop, then I would recommend shortening the development time and increasing the agitation significantly. Just my opinion of course, not offered as gospel.

Best, Jon
