A very difficult subject: I've spent 3 rolls and several sheets of film capturing this tree, and I'm still lusting for more.
This is one of the first attempts in the darkroom. In this batch, this version was the most pleasing to my eyes, because I could get in some contrast without spoiling the dark areas.
Camera: Hasselblad 500 c/m with Zeiss 150mm Sonnar and circular pola filter
Film: Ilford FP4+ in R09 1:25 for 9:00 minutes
Printing: dense print on Fomabrom 112 matt, followed by more bleaching and just a bit of sepia toning, in order to get some soft highlight in the otherwise dull image. Then very briefly toned in selenium to dense the dark areas.

My submission for the catalogue of the Art Walk in Haarlem next month. I'll be there with a small exhibition at Bruno Klassiek, a very good classical CD and (jazz) record store.
