this is fantastic! what a wonderful atmosphere you've created! toy cameras sure can be fun, and they are a good reminder that we don't have to have fancy expensive kit to make really cool photos!

As i have said before christofer, you are really building a strong portfolio. This picture is no acceptance! It has this strange and mystical feel to it! I Love the composition and tones and the fact that you used a toy camera for this one. How did you process it?
Best regards Anne Lene

christofer grandin Thanks Anne Lene for your kind comment!

In this I used Fortepan 100 developed in Rodinal. Plastic lens and a transparent plastic bag gave me the diffusion I wanted. I did some burning mainly on the boy and the tree and shadows to increase the contrast a bit. I normally do prints the old fashion way, but this one is done directly from a scanned negative.
