Having done some research on the process, I can see why it produces such an enviable mono image. Full marks for the shot and the process used to capture it, it has expanded my knowledge and awareness.

Thanks for feedback. This process is sometimes challenging but it is very addictive.

You sure like doing things the hard way, Heikki! Seriously though - great job! You've caught a great expression, from a good angle, while the the selective focus adds to the effect. As Mike suggests, there is a particular "look" which is very appealing, and the imperfections add to it all.

Thank you. Doing hard way... not at all when everything goes well in process😁
