Ice Formation [print]

So much nicer than the scan. More organic and subtle. Your scans don't do justice to what you put on paper. (and I mean that as a compliment to your darkroom skills- not bashing your scanning skills... )

Eddie - thanks! I have so much more fun in the darkroom, but often can't find time for it.
Steve, rbender, Gene - thank you! You're very kind.

Beautiful image. There seems to be an endless series of tones in there. I can relate to your struggle to find darkroom time. But I am never sorry when I get round to it eventually.

Love the muted approach to this. Such lovely tones.

Amazing how much you can get from ice...and it seems to be a theme at the moment...you guys are really in winter aren't you!

Thank you!
Tony, looking around where we live, there's ice everywhere this time of year. When you see something like this, you can't not photograph it. Such a gift to find something like this, and it really was our friend Steve (ishutteratthethought) that drew me over to see it. Without him I think the rest of us would have completely missed it.
Andy, I made harder prints of this too, but decided that how I saw the ice was more gentle. I'm really happy that we were there together, ending up making prints of something so beautiful.
