I won't say. But I love this shot.

Due to the b&w photo........I am going to go with...Ummmm....:scratch: ....BLACK???!!!!

 

[Efergoh]

Nope....white. stark white. Pure friggin white.

When I printed it to be white, I got zero detail on anything else regardless of filter.
Print for more time and this is what I got.

i really like the way you have this printed, and was wondering, do you think you would print it to near white/white and still get detail developing intermittently with a water bath?

 

[Efergoh]

hmmm....that is beyond my skill set. I'm currently in my second semester of photography classes (at a community college). We haven't gotten that in depth.

I would love to print this to the true color of the car. I took this photo to give to my girlfriend's dad (who is currently building a Chevelle). I wanted the "Chevelle" to pop really well, and print it as large as I could get it (I should be able to print pretty large, the grain is super super fine, the finest I've seen with TriX - a fluke, I'm sure) and mount it and give it to him as a gift when he finishes his build.

Cool shot like it is... hard to believe it was white though!!

Excellent shot Efergoh... I'd like to see a photograph of the whole car like that if you have it!

I wish I did, but I don't.

I took this at a car show. I didn't take many photos of whole cars....that just felt cliche. I did grab a couple, but not of this one...I wish I had, now.

I showed this to a buddy of mine who dabbles in photography...and has a friend who is a pro...he showed it to the pro who thought it was done with IR.
