Currently doing my best to catch up on 130 :o unscanned rolls and deep into the b&w part of the rather impressive pile. Two 'forestscapes' from near Detmold in Germany. I'm a bit annoyed that I didn't get sunstars on the second one.

Love this one, Christoph.  Looks like a much shorter focal length than 35.  Reminds of of the famous Muhammad Ali photo of his large fist in the foreground and the rest of his body in the background in bokeh :)  I think this reptile could have given Ali a run for his money :)

I finally shot one roll of Ilford PanF and I did it at the beach. I really like the results and the 50s look of the tones. I need to buy a few more rolls!

 

Here's one of the photos. The sub came out of the water with a big conger and people gathered around. I didn't photograph the fish, I liked the group of people more.

 

No Leica at the beach:

Apart from that building in the background (then again this was shot at a playground in town), this is the look I had hoped for in the previous photo. Plus another, more misty photo, also from a playground.

Philip ,  film gives better nuance than digital because he has great dynamic like you can see

in your 2 pictures posted here

The gray or black scale in example is outstanding with great details in the shadows ! :)

Superb contre-jour. Sun rays are great and also great relief

Thank you

Another contre-jour for Henry. From one of last month's rolls. Near Roydon. Kodak Portra 400 and Summaron.

Ian thank you :)

I am happy today with your picture and Philip's pictures , both in "contre-jour"

Really the color in film keeps the natural side and like in your picture Ian , the color and details

are still superb in the shadows . I like much beige (at right) and yellow spots (at left) of flowers

in foreground.

 

Thank you again Ian and Philip :)

You're doing something wrong.  Take a look at the tonal range in Phillipus's images in #34827 compared to yours. They are chalk and cheese. 

 

A lot of your images look tonally weird, in many cases it's down to what you are doing to the files after you have scanned the neg (your black and white tea plantation images were badly mangled in pp, as is the colour image you uploaded before these).  I think you need to look at what you are doing.  Let's backtrack:

 

What film & developer have you used here?

On another subject, but pertaining to correct exposure:

 

I spent a few hours looking at "400 Photographs, Ansel Adams" on Father's Day (U.S.). I do not know why, but for some reason, I had never really appreciated the brilliance of the man's photographs as I did when I reviewed them this time. I am not sure if having taken so many B&W photographs myself, I now have a better reference to fully appreciate the magnitude of the man's talent, or, if it is something else. At any rate, this time around, it hit me in the face........like a brick.

 

The book does not give information on equipment used for specific photographs, but it is my understanding he did virtually all of his work with large format and Hasselblad, MF gear. I am curious, and ask those more knowledgeable than myself: framing aside, is the brilliance of the man's work more an attribute of exposure?, or, format? Is the same gravity of result possible with 135 film? Please excuse such a novice question, but I was floored.

 

I have never, personally, viewed an actual Adams print. I suppose the experience would be even more dramatic. I am now going to make it a point to see one. I guess another factor to be considered, the photos printed in the book, although reproductions, presented no digital, interpretive barrier between the viewer and the original photographs.
