Very well done Evan, all of your work demands ample study. Nice geometry with the dark rectangle of the headboard, the light triangle of curtains, bed, and you, as well as the dark band to hold the left side of the frame (I would have cropped it and made the photo worse).

Nothing to add to the previous comments Evan (i too thought you were older from reading your usual insightful comments).
This makes me miss my Hassies even more :-(
If it's easy to reverse a shot today with digital it was another story with film back in the days since once the negative put upside down int the negative carrier the image on the emulsion side had to go through the plastic support of the film itself thus creating a slight off or soft focus image. None of this is apparent here.
Great great work as always my friend :-)
Ray,
Just wanted to follow up on this and say the darkroom print I just received was also reversed as you see here, and while its not a huge print (about 9x9") the focus/sharpness didn't suffer in the least. I do, on the other hand, have a genius printmaker who does my wet-work (Robert Cavalli of Still Moving Pictures).

Thanks again all!
Thanks for the update Evan, i suppose if you stop down the enlarger lens enough you can get rid of this little blur, good to know for sure. Keep up the good work :-)
