First time poster, looking for some feedback. Cross posting these, not many responses in B&W. Took some of these shots over the last few weeks and developed them at my house. These are the first few prints I have done since a highschool class 4 years ago. Took a while to work out a few minor issues with the enlarger. Still have a couple left but it's working pretty good now. These looked bright enough on my monitor at home but here at work they are pretty dark. Minor editing was done, mostly to get them to look like the original prints. The scanner really flattened things out.

I'll probably add some more this weekend as I develop some new ones. Hopefully they turn out. Next time I think I need either a longer developing time or more agitation on the film as the negatives seem fairly low in contrast, that is my only disappointment with the first few rolls and prints.

Thanks for looking. Criticism is welcome.

Second one has potential. Perhaps if you add some tone (Sepia ?), and adjust the levels in Photoshop to give it more contrast.

I agree about the second one, and maybe the gold medal flower one as well. Damn, this is the first film shots I've seen in a long, long time. I forgot how much I miss that look.
