Great shot Helen!
Her sweater/coat really draws your attention to her. A little pop of white in a sea of dark grey and black.
 
Looks good, Giulio! In situations like this you can try split grade printing. Then you have to make two exposures on the same paper: one with filter 00 for the soft, light tones (usually very long) and the other with filter 5 (usually very short) for the deep blacks. It takes some time to find out the exposure times, but you can get great results with it. I make all my enlargements in split grade.


Erik.
 
Thanks Erik, I know about split grade from some of your posts.

Practice makes better they say and I am a total beginner here so I will keep printing while trying to learn as much as I can.
