Why goodbye? I don't get it.
Nice photograph, I always thought architecture looked cool in 700 nm or above.

Thanks Thomas. Sadly, Kodak will be discontinuing HIE in December.

Andy, I've often walked by this spot on my way to the cockle sheds in Leigh, and remember making a note on the photographic potential of this marvellous print that you've already produced! The highlights on the stucture really stand out against the dark backdrop of the sky. Really love this!
The same can definately be said for your other submission.
Great Stuff!

All The Best.

Alan.

Thanks Alan. If you want to photograph Crowstone House you best get going. It's under threat of demolition.

What a bummer, Andy. I actually saw the posting in the forums minutes after seeing your picture... I guess we're left with Efke IR820, Ilford SFX, and Rollei IR. Could be worse, but none of them probably look quite like HIE.

That's my fear too Thomas. I am going to try Ilford's SFX.

Great shot! I mourn with you Andy K! That film was one of my faves! I just found out and I'm very sad.
