Well, the building may be new but the treatment makes it somewhat timeless!
Well seen and beautifully executed, letting the eye glide round the sweeping curve.
Very Fritz Lang and Metropolis-esque, if I may say so.

I like the picture Frank, but can you tell us how you toned it, presuming you have, as you say it is on Ilford MGV, but it has a lovely warm tan colour to it,

This looks great Frank. Your angle brings out the fine detail of the architecture very well.

Thank you very much, gentlemen, much appreciated.
Well, it is not toned at all, but my Moersch Eco is a warmtone developer. The warm tone is not really kept in a scan. Then I sit with my print in hand and try with my program to make the scan resemble the print. That is tricky and I am sure I still have something to learn. The frame shows that it might be a bit overdone. But in general this developer is great and adds a wonderful tone to the print.

I can confirm that the warm tone is indeed a bit more subtle in the actual print compared to the scan, a difficult thing to get exactly matching on a computer screen.

Thank you, Sebastiaan. In doubt I should just do rather less than the qualified guess.

Thanks for all the messages guys and yes, we all seem to have problems with some prints, trying to match the screen image to the print.
The biggest 'problem' is that most people don't have calibrated screens, so we all see different screen versions of the actual prints, with only the sender and receiver of the print(s) really knowing what they actually look like.
