I know; I'm a one-trick pony these days. Both these images are from HIE negatives which, I am learning, make tough bromoil assignments. They actually turned out pretty nicely, although I don't think they've scanned very well here. bah!
Standard inking, by brush only, on this one. In the past, I have also done an image transfer with this image, in case it seems familiar to anyone who might remember. :razz:

I used the roller inking technique on this one, as the negative is a bit dense and I wanted to get sharper photographic detail in the lower part of the image, where the reflection in the water is. Since it's an HIE negative, the water turned black, which sort of enhances the ghostly effect, I think. I used a small brush to ink up some of the distant tree trunks, for a more painterly effect on top.
"Cypress knees"
Any opinions or comments welcomed, as always. Thanks for looking!
