Nice image.

I think 'tis "in focus"--I'm noticing that a lot of people don't understand IR and that it, by its very nature makes for "soft" images...

I also think IR was the right treatment for this subject.

Hi Brian, I think the wide angle lens has distorted the building slightly too much in this image (imho). Also, getting the entire structure in the frame I think would have been stronger. I think your choice of angle for shooting could have been stronger.

Choice of IR Film has given an interesting effect to the trees and the sky.

I was drawn to the image because it was titled "Welsh House". It's a good effort but I think could be improved compositionally.

Good luck with future developing. Best regards, Janet

Wow what a dramtic sky. Suggestions would be to capture the house in it's entirety and it is out of focus. Nice to see someone is still processing wet :-).

Hi Bob, thanks for critique I would have photographed the house in its entirety,but for the fact that to the right of the picture there was unsightly excavation equipment which I think would have spoiled the image,as for it being out of focus I have just had a look at the unscanned picture and it is in focus I can assure you,regards,Brian
