This is a rescan and refined crop of an image made a year ago,
preparing a 6"x9" negative for a contact printed ziatype, or
palladium, maybe pt/pd print. When I was working on this rescan, I was
impressed (again) by the quality of the image made by an old camera,
with an old lens design. Although I have chosen to 'dodge' and 'burn'
some areas to add depth (as I would using an enlarger), there is a
certain 'patina' about the result which is produced organically by
the lens, and not photoshop, or an 'app'. :-)
