Tree Shadows

Hello, first darkroom work. Any suggestions?

I like the smooth texture of the background behind the branches up top. It looks like it got a little grainy (pixelized) near the bottom right corner. Strong contrast and well composed.

I very much like it but perhaps just a bit less contrast.

Number one I love the high contrast but then again I have a soft spot for that kind of image. Number two what kind of paper did you use and how did you do this image

Hey Josh, When I took the pic, I used an orange filter and I used Ilford Multigrade IV RX Deluxe Glossy paper with F8 at I think 15 or 19 seconds with a #3 Ilford Filter on the Omega Condenser enlarger.
