This is my photo for my project in college "The Thing". We had to shoot some still life.

This is a scan from print, not my final print because I handed that up today.
But, it’s pretty damn close to the final print.
Like in this one, there be quite a massive highlight in the middle. I did not have that in my final print.

So, it’s an 8x10 enlargement.
I shot it on ILFORD HP5.

ILFORD IS FILM KIDS.

Techs:
Eos33 + some sigma shit 24-70

Print Exposure: (all f/11)
