Actually, no tratment Sarah. Shot on high speed film, developed in Ultra Black developer and printed with a grade 5 filter. I guess you would call that 'treatment' in old shool terms but I mean that there has been no computer manipulation, except spotting!

Fantastic James! The real "treatment" most new digital photographer doesn't know anything about it! I must admit I have not been in a darkroom for over a dozen years and I kinda miss it sometimes!
