I'm slowly scaling up my operation. Something you don't just leap into when you're dealing with platinum as mistakes can be costly. However now I have a lovely new batch of Arches Platine paper to play with I thought it was time. This print is about nine inches square on a sheet that is roughly 12" x 16".

The image itself was taken on the Streets of Manchester (England) with a Rolleiflex 3.5F, medium format camera, scanned and enlarged onto a digital negative.

A handful of you out there may recognise the Captain Beefheart reference in the title.

I'm now avidly trying to get a picture of a squid eating dough in a polyethylene bag but you don't get many of those in the north west of England. ;o)
