Bloom In Negative

Occasionally, photography becomes experimental. I've not often had the luxury of a darkroom at my disposal, but when I did, I began trying a few things, some of which worked.

This was originally a color slide, which wasn't particularly interesting as such. I enlarged it to a color print as if it were a negative and it yielded a bit more interesting image, mostly due to the granularity and the unusual hue the background took on.

I believe I photographed this using a Konica high-speed slide film and push-processed it. My camera was a Nikkormat FTN with likely, a 50mm f/2.0 lens.
