This is an onlder pic of mine... I decided to submit some of my older work that I like. It is a burned house in a Texas small town. Scene: Closet.
My own comments: It is not easy to meter for scenes with LOTS of black or lots of white. This negative is not really what I envisioned. But that was before I learned to use the zone system. Had I done that, there would be much more shadow detail. The pic is too contrasty. But I can't redo this one. This kind of thing is not repeatable... Until I find another burned house! So even though I don't think it is wonderful technically, I really like the subject and how eerie it is. I feel a lot of emotion when I see it. I am not so much looking for crit, just wanted to share.
Details:
Taken with Canon AE-1 film camera (35mm)
400 ASA B&W Film
Printed 8x10 on VC RC paper.
28mm lens
Not Photoshopped in any way.
8x10 Print Scanned.

This is beautiful and so sad all at the same time. I can just totally imagine someone wearing that dress.
Wonderful shot. The contrast looks great, and I love the framing by the door.
