Big brother daisy by brigette

Big brother daisy

was tossing up between the original and cropped version..

Just a weed I noticed on my walk after work today. Calotype processing -introduced in 1841 by William Henry Fox Talbot. Using paper coated with silver iodide.
The term calotype comes from the Greek καλός (kalos), "beautiful", and τύπος (tupos), "impression".
(what did we do before google or Wikipedia!)
Nicely processed, I think I prefer this version.

Hmmm...think I prefer the other. But then I'm subject to change without notice.

@swilde I like the bigger daisy i think in this one.. but the crop is all wrong..

@brigette That's it. The daisy is neither centred nor thirded..it needs to move to the right
