Bonjour Henri,   I still prefer black and white film (I use almost no colour). The advantages of digital don’t mean much to me. Seeing instant results is not so useful, since what comes out of a cam

Thanks for your kind comment

Gary, I want to add that in Asia we are in luminous condition of light.

That's why I recommand 100 or 160 Isos ... and 400 Isos for sunset

Agree with me Gary. ? Same condition in NZ I think :)

Age has withered us all.

Really nice. Age may come for us all but film preserves precious moments of youth in such a special way.

 

The second shot - you desaturated the background? I like the silhouette at the top of the stairs (as a picture rather than just a portrait)

Not that sure what you are asking Henry, sorry.

The light here is usually quite harsh, and as a "retired" wedding photog, it was usually soot and whitewash. The rare cloudy bright days were great, but few and far between unfortunately.

100 - 400 is all I use for film.

Is that what you were meaning?

Yes Gary thanks for your reply :)

Almost every years I travel for a humantarian mission in Asia.

In my first mission many years ago , I always brought Fuji Velvia or Provia.

The most beautiful pictures in color (with vivid colors) I have is with Velvia 50 Isos.

Regards

Henry

I scanned the slide some years ago, and I must have desaturated the background then. I don't know what I used to do it, as there is no development history showing up in LR. I would have to find and rescan it to show it properly. On the other hand, I don't mind the look of the background as it is at present.

All lovely, but I have a special soft spot in my heart for the Matchless 500. All torque and low revs.

Without hesitation, I can say  Velvia this one

 

 

and Ektar

 

Right Adam ?

and thanks for your nice comment

Rg

Henry

 

 

My guess, like gnuyork, Velvia 1st one, Ektar the 2nd.

I like the second better, it "feels" warmer, slightly.

Both wonderful shots though, hard to differentiate.

Gary

 

 

^ 1st Velvia - 2nd Ektar. I like the 1st better.

 

Thanks for playing the game.  Not surprisingly , you are all right.  Th first is Velvia 50.  A little surprised that Gary likes the Ektar better.  Seeing them side by side like this makes me think that I could work on the Ektar a little bit more to do it more justice.
