Hi Peter,

Thank you vry much for your comments, you have very well reported the 
signifiance of both images, In my opinion, both express the same thing, but 
they explain it differently. I think they complement each other, so I think 
it would be a good idea to show both.

I agree with you about the look of over exposed images but I think that this 
is a defect of over developing, in Barcelona is very, very hot, my darkroom 
is at 27 or 28 ?C and this increase very fast the temperature of the 
developer, I have prepared the developer and started the process at 19?C, 
after 6 minutes developing time when I have poor the developer (I dalways do 
this to have a better information of the temperature) it was at 23?C, 
normally in winter the final temperature is 20 or 21?C. However I think that 
when I do the positive this will be corrected, the scanner increase the 
highlights than the paper sensitivity. I hope that in September I can work 
again in the darkroom.

Cheers
Lluis
