Today I feel like doing something special. To create something different
that normally. Maybe it was from yesterday, when I made those very nice
ACEO cards. Still jumping when looking at them as a kid.
I was printing free prints for March today and I really like that photo. I
though maybe I can do something even more different. As you may know I have
made this month free print on Premium semigloss paper. from Epson. That
paper I use normally when somebody liked to have little less mat surface
and deeper blacks. I like that also very much on certain images. Especially
big prints look very nice.
But I though this image deserve something even more special. It has that
kind of old look. We used to play a lot on an Old Carousel. So I though
print it wit carbon only to get little warm tone. Looked good but still I
was something missing. Than I add those old paper edges to it. And as a
last I use my old great Ilford Smooth Fine Art Paper. Bloody expensive but
with very raw surface, almost like canvas. And that was IT.
Now I have two great prints. I had only last two papers on this kind I
bought when I was experimenting on different papers about four years ago.
Now I finally found a great use for it. Well what I should write more take
a look on it:
