I think I prefer b&w without filter, it gives softer tones. Here are two - with and without yellow filter (both M7 Summarit-M 50/2.5 Ilford XP2),

Ellie , that you win one hand (structure, sharper) , we lose another (softness)  :rolleyes:

The image is "harderwhen you put a filter

The best is as you said ... without

 

Nice tonality and grain in the first picture

I don't need to improve the shot , because I want to keep the original atmosphere and this "mid full dark" and quiet ambiance of the church, as I feel at the time of taking the picture.

 

 

 

  Henry,

 

  i agree with you to be happy - there are moments that fits just about anything and you are sure

I think it's more difficult to make street photo in Jerusalem

Hi Henry - thanks for all the kind and thoughtful comments on this thread.  I have a question about this photo.  It seems about a stop to a stop and half underexposed to me given the overall scene.  Reason is that, while the sky looks beautiful and very well exposed, the people are underexposed and thus hidden from the scene.  Can I suggest that you try to increase your exposure of these types of shots by a good stop and maybe even a stop and a half?  The sky may not stay as perect, but you will retain a lot of detail in the sky and open up the foreground a great deal.  The scanner should give you a file that will avoid blown highlights anywhere in the image (even though given the exposure you used the skie would be blown out with any digital camera) and allow you to introduce the highlights as you wish all while preserving the shadow detail as well (like having your cake and eating it too).

 

As an example, on a perfectly sunny day for a shot like this, with 800 ISO I would shoot it at 1/1000 at f8 (maybe even f6.7 depending on the color of the people's skin and their clothing).  How does this compare to how you shot it?  It seems like you may have used your in camera meter which picked up the highlights in the sky and decreased the exposure, which is why I HATE in camera meters!  I could be wrong about this, and would be interested in your thoughts.
