Description

Originally i wondered wether this belongs to the photographic gallery. But because it was all done in the photographic process i think it should. Another one of the "how grainy can you be in the photographic process". Used a 400 ASA film, pushed it to 1200 ASA, developed the fim with hot developer to get this sort of grain. Then copied the thing on high contrast paper. Finally painted it with special colors (I only know the German expression how they are called) that keep the structures and only change the paper color. Here i did it with air brush and went too close to get the dots. Normally exactly what you try to avoid when airbrushing. Ufff, that was a long text, i hope you like it.

I like this one very much. There is enough of her face to intrigue and I like the composition. Nicely done.

Your experiments are always so interesting, Walther, with such wonderful and unexpected results; really like the color in this, and the graininess as well.
