A Photo of Mine.

I took this photo in the early evening just before the sun set.
Photo Specifics:
Camera: Canon XTI
Lens:  Canon 28-135
F-stop:  f/5.6
Exposure time: 1/30 sec.
ISO: 200
Focal Length: 135mm
Subject Distance: 710mm

I shot this Photo in RAW and then processed it in DXO.
After setting the color to Black & White i used the Film Pack Plug in to simulate Ilford HP4.
I applied a yellow filter to lighten the flower then added a vignette to darken the other flowers.

I really liked this photo before I played with it but the black and white version has a nice quality.
I plan on going back to the garden where I shot this with my Elan 7 and shooting a similar photo on film.

My goal is to try and match this as close as I can in the darkroom using analog techniques.  this may take a while as family life is very busy right now.

The original Photo, unedited.
