The angel--just beautiful!
I needed that!
Hope you are doing well and that we'll see you at the Beemer plant in Oct--or even before!

Looking good Paul. What is next? Eyeless doll heads and slow speed shots of merry-go-rounds? Yes I am a Crawford fan too.

 

[paulfish4570]

thanks, Ray.
i have two brand new hair-styling doll pics in the gallery.
irony: i shot creepy doll pics before i knew Chris' work. lotsa weirdos around ...

Very nice Paul. Chris can probably tell you what to do to bring out that nice shadow detail that is so relevant in Chris's photos. Chris is one of my favorite b&w photographers.

thanks, Greg.

Paul,

I didn't know you posted this till now, when someone told me about it! Sorry I didn't see it and respond back then. That's a cool old church, my kind of place! The scans look a bit flat, most film scans do...just needs a little curve adjustment. I'll try and post an edited version in a day or two. I'm on my laptop at a friends house now. I just moved and am waiting for my internet service to be activated at my new place.

Another Chris fan here. His photos are always awesome and he's answered so many questions from me over the years.

Nicely, done, Paul, especially the angel shot.
