not great experiment

Really great expression; relaxed, natural, and comfortable.
Lovely texture and grain. The softness gives an elegant quality.

Thanks! I am use to tri-x so these seem not as much contrast as I like and usually I don't have so much grain but I think the problem was my processing.LOL!

Beautiful photo. I've never cared much for HP-5. Years ago I had a student who wanted to do Zone system calibrations with HP-5. It did not respond well compared to Tri X and Plus X. I LOVED Tri X before Kodak changed it about 8 7ears ago. Still good, but not the same. Nice photos!

Beautiful picture
