Very nice Uwe. Nice color and tonal quality.Some old tractor:
Saw this on the chromasia site and I think it is one of your best. Reminds me of Hockney's joiners. Have you tried to do the Hockney joiner thing digitally?English Tea Man
Original (sort of) shot with areas lightened. Textures used.

In the original images above, I would go to the darkroom and tape about 100 pieces of paper on the wall overlapping each other a bit and then expose the image and when I took them down, I would number the back then develop them and then when dry, tape it back together.Mike
In the case of the original Tea Man were the component rectangles cut from the same image and pasted on? - I assume these are not individual images, as with a Hockney joiner.
I love the effect and have always thought that this technique adds a feeling of time to the picture - which is how Hockney described it.

These last two images that you have uploaded are great. Look forward to seeing more.

Yes, it works best where it softens the literal representation. Also often some more disturbing elements in the literal picture get less annoying.What interested me was the subject matter and somewhat abstract quality.
