Frozen Grass

Some grass frozen by spray from the lake. I didn't realize how cold it was until I got back to the car and couldn't get my keys in the ignition I was shaking so bad. Negative scan.

just an opinion but if you crop off the top(non grass area) it would make an interesting abstract as the frozen grass blends together the further up you go.
I wouldn't be able to guess what it was-would think it's a microscopic image.
 
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
