old negatives 03.

dearest Joana have sent me 11 old negatives - along with her last letter.

the prints after my darkroom session:

✻ these negatives were squared - were they all taken the same day?

✻ probably my favourite - this negative was also a squared one.

✻ the negatives of these three prints were wider than my enlarger - I had to select an area to print from them.
the third picture was blurry but I still wanted to print it: you can tell that it belongs to the same series.

✻ the last three ones stand alone - I especially like the one with the woman sitting in that beautiful garden.

it was a pleasure to print Joana's family's old negatives. I am going to send her the prints via mail very soon: hopefully she will like them.
♡ thank you, Joana!
