Fine shot, that is indeed Bill.
What happened to the top?

True, that's me. Seem to have got into everybody's way on that trip.
Nice shot considering the age of the camera it was taken with. Just shows how good the older cameras can be when used correctly.

Thanks guys...
I'm not sure what's going on at the top. I can only assume it's something to do with the fogging. I took the whole lid off a steel tank instead of just the little one. Only for a moment, but enough to mess up the top two films. They were on steel spirals so maybe some shadow perhaps and a bit of reversal. Not sure.

I like the effect at the top, it doesn't detract form the picture at all.
I really like the tonality, what dilution and temperature of neutol WA did you use?

The Neutol was 20 degrees and diluted 1 + 9 ( easy to make a litre for the tray). I should add that all my materials are extremely old so results are not necessarily consistent. I just want to use them all up before going on to the new stuff. The paper must have been at least ten years old.

I really like this shot, the building looks great, just hope my shots do it justice.
If this was a digital shot you could even clone Bill out of it Ha Ha

I think the tones are down to the older versions of MG warmtone being on a warmer base although not sure if this also applies to the RC version.
Really like the look, I'll give neutol WA a go tomorow night.

The picture looks even better in the flesh, as it were. And Bill contributes nicely to the scene. More seriously, the warmth of the paper really makes the scene.
