Bluecoat Stairwell

Looking upward toward light streaming down the concrete and brick shaft of a stairwell at the grade 1 listed Bluecoat Gallery in city centre Liverpool.

This was my first ever photo using medium format film - in this case a 50 year old twin lens Minolta Autocord loaded with Ilford XP2 Super 400 B&W film.

I love the the way in which the camera has handled the change in tones from light to dark which I think is better than the way in which modern digital cameras handle highlights.
