Last Snowdrops

Whilst passing through I spotted this late patch of snowdrops in a local churchyard and managed to grab this shot with the last frame on the roll.
Canon EOS 50E, Canon EF 24-105mm L lens, HP5+ @ 400 ISO, developed in Pyrocat HD

 

Thumbnail, I like the way the sunlight lights up the petals, and on film too, bonus.

 

Thanks Craig. I would have preferred a much lower angle POV but my old bones discourage such frivolous activities as intentionally getting down to ground level and I didn't have a TLR with me to help. It is now on the list for wet printing once I get back into the darkroom.

 

A very nice image. It seems as though Black & White will never lose its mysterious charm. Thanks very much for sharing.

Thank you Tony.

 

I know the feeling, getting down is not a big issue but getting back is a nightmare.
I feel like a trout floppy around in the bottom of a boat.

 

A little pearl of wisdom:
'If ever you find yourself on the floor always have a look around to see what else you could be doing while you are there before trying to up'.
