Compositionally, it seems incomplete to me and the vertical fighting the hortizontal to neither's benefit. The subject is centered, but the rest of the composition is not. Sorry, it just does not work for me.

Appreciate all the feedback, esp yours Vaughn. Nice to know the "why" when it doesn't work for someone.

That's the problem with these damn fine processes (and LF/ULF negs) -- sometimes the beauty of the process allows us to get away with less than sufficient images. I bet if I saw this print in person, I'd be charmed by the impact of the process and its tonality, and by the structure itself. It happens with my carbon prints.

As always, take my words with a helping of salt!
