Sixth Plate

SOME HESITATION! The child appeared rather reluctant to pose with the woman who most likely was her mother. She clasped her hands together and stood uncomfortably while pinioned by a hand against her mom’s body. The girl moved her head during the retaped sixth plate’s exposure. The woman’s heavily lidded eyes were aimed directly towards the camera. Her lips retained a passive smile. Their maker used red pigment to accentuate their faces and the gal’s necklace and bracelets. Gold was applied to the metallic jewelry. Mold mites and reddish/brown spots are visible. The reflected depth was impressive and honestly, when the pair is rotated inside a complete leather case, the contrast and exposure appears much better then I was able to reproduce.
