A lovely, expansive landscape, Kris. Very nicely seen but not, I think, as powerful as one of the dead tree shots on your slideshow, which I've just enjoyed.
The chipmunk is great and the chap reading.
The Coney island shots look like stills from a 1950s film...very atmospheric.
You should be well pleased with these.

Kris, this is a lovely expansive shot.
If I have one niggle, it would be the limited amount of mid-tones on show. Also, I think you have an option to get a range of tones in those green areas as well, using the green and yellow channels, no?

Not when working on a scan of a BW negative! Perhaps I should have used a different filtration, or I could try some tweaks in photoshop. to try and increase the midtone contrast.If I have one niggle, it would be the limited amount of mid-tones on show.

Cheers, Kris.
