The light is a bit odd in that place, high contrast and mixed types

The market moved to new premisses this year, this, the old temporary place was in use for at least the last 15 years so I thought I'd print up a few as a record.

It was 10 degrees cooler in the fish market, probably still 65-70 degrees but it feels cold when you go in. It was in the shadows at the foot of the Old Fort's curtain wall but has moved now to the other side of the road now in full sun

Stuart, great pics of Clive. I understand why you like 1 and 3 of the second set, but you're right in your choice of gift print. Otherwise there's a risk he won't get it. Crete work is also nice, and your colour is consistent over time I think.

DoubleNeg - Sonnar/M9, a great combo.

Mike

Just getting started with wet printing. Here are the first decent (for me anyway) prints I have made.

I'm pretty sure that I've posted this image before, though the print is new.

Flickr adds a bit too much sharpening and brightens the colours a tad on the ones I post here, but lab provide colour profiles so I can calibrate my monitor to their printers so the prints are accurate

The olive trees on Corfu don't get replanted, they just get pruned back to their trunks every 60 or 70 years. The result are these bizarrely twisted trees, locals claim some are thousands of years old ... the groves can be very atmospheric even in the daytime. They make a delightful, rich yet light and fruity oil however.

I didn't know it was new, but I also grabbed a quick photo of the phone box as I walked by. Yours is much better.

The heavy winter rains have washed away the dry-stone terracing that retained the soil, and the trees too I suppose.

The olive trees can live thousands of years, some in the Beqaa Valley are claimed to be over four thousands years old, these were probably closer to four hundred
