The concept might be more interesting if it were better lit or cut in half length wise so just the RHS is visible.

I've had trouble with Hake for a variety of reasons. Winsor Newton Sceptre Gold was recommended to me and does the job beautifully. Not sure about Van Dyke as I use Pt/Pd.

Interesting image; I think it would also work well as one of your cyanotypes.

I sort of tried cyanotype with the negative and it doesn't pick up the more delicate tones down the middle because of its compressed tonal scale.

I do like the idea of splitting it down the middle into two images, though. There is more of the left side of the negative, it just didn't all fit onto the coated area. For example you can see bands of rope on the arm in the negative, so this is effectively a cropped image.

Japanese rope bondage. It's just so pretty. Especially seen up close.

I would like to see more of the rope work, but that's just because I find it amazing.

I've just seen this, must've missed it first time around. I agree with Stephanie in that I would like to see more of the rope work, it is usually amazing.

Good print apart from the slight darkness, I'm not convinced about the splitting down the middle, although I can see why.

Mick.
