Into a suburb of heaven [coffee toned van dyke print]

Into a suburb of heaven [coffee toned van dyke]

actually this was the "working paper" when I started to use a new batch of chemistry and paper, trying to determine the right amount of exposure, development blah... I painted a "level" of coffee over it and left it alone.

I did another one from the same negative, a gold toned platinum/palladium. don't have a scan of it, as it's sold. good for me, bad for you :)

original shot done on polaroid 664, scanned and transformed into a digital negative.
