I like the one sort of blurred piece of web in the upper left. Quite neat :).

amazing photo.

Yeah, I’m guessing that the sort of stripe-y blurs are from the web blowing a bit.

Nice choice of film — wide open again — great shot…

One of the nicest photographs I’ve seen on your site since I began coming here. The heavy grain fits the subject well and adds to the overall feeling of the photograph. You would think the delicate web of the spider would be lost in all the grain but that isn’t the case. Grain, depth of field, and subject matter were all chosen well. An excellent photograph as usual.

Wow, really subtle and perfect focus. Well done indeed.

Another good one - I like it a lot. I don’t know what your lab is doing to dev those negatives, but it’s pretty weird…

Someone commented on an earlier photo that the Fuji Frontier machines tend to add grain to black and white photos when scanning. I think that would explain the unusual nature of the black and white photographs.

That was me who said that about frontier scans. I’m not entirely sure it’s true, but it seems that way to me. I’ve noticed it with slide film as well, so it might have to do with the density of the emulsion. Or I could be absolutely completely wrong. No idea really.

I know that my West Camera Frontier scanned colour negative film looks almost grainless compared to even 100 b&w or slide film
