Baguette with poolish - Hamelman

So this is my attempt to try and make a baguette. It is made with a poolish described in the 'Bread' book by Mr. Hamelman. I admit, I was scared to make it, scared to fail. I think this simple bread is one of the most difficult to make. It is far from perfect, but the result is less bad than I had expected. I don't have a pic of the crumb, but it had large and small holes in it. Not that many large ones, but more than I expected, so I will have to try and make it again. Practice, practice, practice...
