Blue Heron - 11x17 print on 15x22 paper

Original photo made with Nikon D5100 and Nikkor 500mm reflex lens. Post processed in Lightroom, converted to b/w, inverted to make a digital negative, printed on Pictorico transparency stock, and then used as a negative for the Vandyke Brown process. Images exposed as contact prints under UV light onto watercolor paper which had the sensitizing solution brushed on and allowed to dry 24 hours. Following a water developing, fixing, and a water rinse, they were dried for 24 hours, and then photographed in order that you might view them on-line.
