Thanks for that Frank.
I had another photo that i was toying with sending but this one kept calling me
back.<g>
It was shot as part of 6 themed B&W catagories for Markham Fair,thus the B&W,but your
right,i dont
think it would work in colour.(btw it was for the shadow's catagory)I think the
horse,as
you say,in the
corner adds a bit of depth and breaks up the lines just enough,but does not take away
from
the idea of
the picture.
Yes i developed the roll in the class last year,and did the print there.One of a few
that
were
square,exposed correctly and NO dust.LOL
