I love this photo... to me, it seems very chaotic and almost menacing, like a portrait of the dark side of Nature.
Any technical info? What type of film? T-MAX 100?? I'm guessing you developed and printed this yourself; prints of this quality don't come from Wal-Mart!! :) #3275

Yes, I did have control over the entire production. I used Delta 100 film, and darkened the sky, and lightened the splash in the foregroung. Thanks for noticing it. #5155

Immediately reminded me of an old black and white major motion picture. Very nice look! Great job! #9334
