Hello Paul,
it is such an honor to receive an interpreted image! It has never happened to me before.
I like it very much, it adds much more expression to it. You have simply made it darker?
Originally, I printed the image really quickly and it got a bit too light. However, I liked the "high-key" appearance. I scanned it on my old computer, which had a very bad screen, where I couldn't really figure out the right contrast, and now, on my new screen I see that it's simpy too flat.
I think you really improved it.
Thank you very much!
Greetings
Alessandro

It's a lovely image with plenty of feeling but it did need tidying (spoting) a bit. Attached is my interpretation of your picture, hope you like it.

This must be the funniest still life I've seen :-) but I suspect it could well do without some of those blown highlights - especially the socks and the bottom left corner, but also the object on the model's head and the stone on her left thigh.

Yes, keep the surfaces (and the entire darkroom) clean. This can be a problem, especially when using glass plates in the enlarger's film holder. Glass is great for holding the film firmly, but having to deal with dust and scratches on four surfaces can be frustrating, which is why I prefer to use metal plates instead of glass.
Another thing I do to minimize dust spots is to always wash the negative before enlarging. I have found distilled water with a splash of wetting agent works well. After the negative dries naturally, I inspect it under a lamp to see if any larger dust particles have remained on it, and if so, I carefully try to remove them. This can take a bit of time, and further washing & drying cycles may even be required, but in the end I find it easier than having to retouch a print full of spots.

Hello Matej,
thank you very much for your detailled comment. I know, the title is not that good, but I made it up very quickly, as I did not take my first picture very seriously. (I had it scanned by coincidence, and just put it into usefilm to see what happens...)
Yes, the shadows... I admit that I was too lazy to do any dodging and burning in. I liked the effect and just left it as it was. Definitely a bit more detail in the pictures hanging on the wall (They impressed me when I was there) would be good.
It is scanned from print with a simple agfa scanner.
I don't like to correct the dust digitally, but I hate it if it's there anyway. What can I do in the darkroom? Just be careful and keep surfaces clean?
Thank you
Greetings
Alessandro

You shouldn't have titled it 'The Mirror', to see how many viewers would recognise that it is indeed a mirror :-) At first, I thought I was looking through a doorway. Only after I noticed the title did I realise the meaning of the face in the corner, and the fact that you can also be seen at the table.
I can't quite decide what to think about the tonality. On the one hand, I appreciate the mysterious atmosphere created by the overall darkness, on the other hand I would have welcome more detail in some of the shadows (the cupboard in the back of the room, and the people around the table). What I *do* know I like is the very clear rendering of the chandelier - that particular part of the image is very good just as it is.
I think it would benefit the presentation if you could get rid of the dust spots. Is the image scanned from print or from the negative?

I also like this pic. The angle makes me dizzy, which is positive for me. The texture also got my attention. She seems to floot....congrats.

Ahh.. i understand! Then its even better.. =) Often i end up turning around my pictures finding better angles. Good work! Odd about the camera.. i havent been here so long so i cant give you any advice there. Best i guess is to to write about it in the photo forums!
Cheers and keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for your comment! It's the first one I've ever got! The idea with the hairgely is nice, actually at the moment of taking the photo I did not think of making her look like she's hanging from the roof. I turned the photo upside down by chance and thought it had a much greater effect.
Sorry the Camera information is a lie! There must be a problem - Usefilm would not let me save the info if I type in a camera name, so i chose any - maybe the problem will be removed.
My camera is a Yashica FX-D with a 50mm DSB lens.

Nice image.. =) But if it should looks like she?s hanging from the roof.. her hair should be falling down! You could use hairgely to get that effect i guess.. =) Nice light and tones. Great details. Cheers!
