Here is the second print from my first attempt at lith this past weekend. Again an image from Belize that I thought might work well with lith.

Camera: Diana+ camera using Rollei Retro 100 B&W film, developed in Rodinal 1:50, scanned lith print on Forte warm tone RC paper

Song of the day: "Wraith Pinned to the Mist and Other Games" by Of Montreal

Poem of the day:
"'WHAT do you make so fair and bright?'
'I make the cloak of Sorrow:
O lovely to see in all men's sight
Shall be the cloak of Sorrow,
In all men's sight.'
'What do you build with sails for flight?'
'I build a boat for Sorrow:
O swift on the seas all day and night
Saileth the rover Sorrow,
All day and night.'
What do you weave with wool so white?'
'I weave the shoes of Sorrow:
Soundless shall be the footfall light
In all men's ears of Sorrow,
Sudden and light.' "
- William Butler Yeats, "The Cloak, The Boat, And The Shoes"
