AntonioF Posted September 10, 2017 Share #39781 Posted September 10, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Here's a couple of pictures taken inside Pike Market in Seattle. It's dark inside the market but I was shooting HP5 at EI 1600 so something came out. Pushing really gives you some advantages in terms of depth of field, if you tolerate the loss in quality and the grainy/contrasty look (which by the way sometimes looks really good). M6, Summicron 35 asph, HP5 pushed to 1600 in HC-110. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Nowhereman Posted September 10, 2017 Share #39785 Posted September 10, 2017 Continuing with digitalizations of old slides, with same setup. The first is at Taylor Bay Beach (Providenciales, Turks and Caicos) and the second near Solomons on Mill Creek, off the Chesapeake Bay, both in the late-1980s on Kodoacrome 64, taken with the M6 and the Summicron 50.

A miller Posted September 10, 2017 Share #39786 Posted September 10, 2017 (edited) I think it's highly unlikely that the slides have shifted in color given how and where they were stored and that they were viewed on a light table only a few times: And, Adam, there are no blown highlights in the Honk Kong image: far from it, the brightest part of the sky has RBG blues of 94, 97, 91 respectively. It's only some brighter light coming through a fog. My point was that transparency film (Kodachrome in this case) often has some "unreal" colors, whose incidence and intensity depends on the extent of under or overexposure, as suggested in the linked posting by "adan". And I was then musing further that some of the beauty of transparency film lies in these anomalies — and that this effect, for the foregoing reasons, was difficult to emulate in post-processing digital files from, say the M10. And that it was useful, occasionally to shoot slide film to keep oneself from attenuating or neutralizing unusual color effects — ones that can add to the beauty of an image; but, ironically — but perhaps typically and in line with my hypothesis — people started posting how to neutralize the "anomalous" colors that were present in the two slides. So, in one way or the other, I got the answer: Yes, Virginia, there can be value for one's digital photography to shoot color slides occasionally. _______________ Alone in Bangkok essay on BURN Magazine If your happy, I'm happy. Or, put differently, I'm happy that you're happy. But, forgive me - I still am not sure that I am grasping the profoundness (or not) of your point. Are you simply saying that the organic imperfections of film often prove to be a strength in a photograph and that photographers who shoot digital should not lose sight of this?

Guest Nowhereman Posted September 10, 2017 Share #39787 Posted September 10, 2017 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Adam - That is the point — and that digital photographers may want to considers resisting neutralizing all colors: that is to say colors in such places like shadows in whichpainters have learned to observe colors, after the impressionists. For example, if you paint an object, say a glazed vase, next to an object of its complementary color, close observation reveals that there is some of complementary color in the shadow on the vase, rather than a neutral shadow. Here is a relevant statement by Chris Tribble. _________________ Alone in Bangkok essay on BURN Magazine Edited September 10, 2017 by Nowhereman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for clarifying. This is a valid point to submit to other places in this forum as well, particularly where more of the digital folk peruse. I'd be interesting in the reaction that you get. In my opinion, the organic imperfections from film (both positive AND negative) have much more artist value than digital color-balance imperfections. When was the last time you saw a "painterly mess" that resembled an impressionistic painting in a digital photo? Perhaps you have, but I'll bet you had to look really hard and really wanted to reach that conclusion! Edited September 10, 2017 by A miller Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Posted September 10, 2017 Share #39790 Posted September 10, 2017 Wayne, you are giving the Color Implosion a run for its money!!! Thanks. It does appear to be similar to Color Implosion, but this is the Fuji Natura 1600, which, I find to be a pretty cool film for night time and ambient lighting. Oddly, the results do appear to be very similar. Color Implosion is an ISO 100 film. I would be interested to see what you can do with the Color Implosion film. It might add a new dimension to your excellent catalog of NY skyline shots. Best, Wayne 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally don't look for NYC skyline keepers with 35mm format film. But I'll bet there are plenty of street scenes where it could be interesting.

Color implosion is certainly a prime candidate withits subdued colours and strong grain and the Fuji Natura 1600 seems indeed very similar. The Cinestill films without any anti-halation layer and brilliant yet natural colours offer a different style, as does Portra 800 - Jean Marc I think - showed some wonderful pastell coloured pictures of horses some time back. In my experience most of these films shine in specific lighting conditions, and its part of the fun to find out what these are. So I hope you can get hold of a few rolls, and I look forward to your results! Rgds C. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
