More Bleaching Required

Looking at some of my show prints I find I like the ones that have more bleaching. I think in the future I will bleach my show work more strongly. As Larry says I need to play up the strengths of film based materials. Strong contrast, strong grain and strong bleach work well together. One old landscape photographer friend told me before that I used too much bleach, but I think he is wrong, his eye, his instinct for this type of work is very limited. I need to throw myself head first as Larry says, let the film look flow out. I need to follow the examples of great documentary photographers like W. Eugene Smith and Larry Clark. Bleach baby bleach!! The next prints I make will be even more bleach oriented, harsher, stronger, deeper.
