Incredible!  Clearly my favorite of your desert series so far.  10 out of 10 with sublime colors!!  And very impressive DOF for such a slow film at low light.

 

Thank you very much Adam, and Henry, for the nice comments. This shot was a bit lucky as the sun was playing hide and seek behind the clouds. The sun shone for a very short while, just enough for me to take one shot.

Hi,

 

M4, 50 Summarit, and Tmax 100 in early 2017.
 
Annoying my Daughter and Son with some pics. One day they'll be in tiny college dorm and will appreciate the gorgeous natural light our front window provides. He looks like he's posing but is actually fidgeting.
 
And a shot on Market Street in San Francisco.
 
Low res scans from Photoworks in San Francisco.

Here is something I notice about film scans as they differ from digital files. While the films scans do not seem to allow as much lattitude in manipulation, no matter what I do, the final result still seems plainly rooted in the original. While digital files seem to allow greater creativity in manipulation, one does not get to alter the original result a whole lot before the image begins to take on the appearance of something that is painted on black velvet. A while back I began to notice this and, now, can not get it out of my head. It seems to pertain to both B&W as well as color digital files. It has spoiled, to some degree, my ability to appreciate digital photography. I recently reviewed a number of monochrome images featured on a very prominent and popular web site and, while the photos are certainly testimony to the dedication and capacity of the individual photographers, the "black velvet" aspect sort of spoiled my full appreciation of what was before me.

 

Anyone else notice this? Or, am I just nuts ? :)

Your photos from Paris have a certain timeless quality, Henry. They could have been taken 50 years ago or yesterday. Lovely!

 

Thank you Edward .  Paris remains Paris with some famous songs you already know

...and If  you come here one day tell me before... we'll go to shoot some street photos

people is kind and let you take them with no problem

 

One more, but unfortunately I posted the best one first :D

I agree with you , you have a difference and I add a great difference

Remember when you compare digital picture versus film scan it lacks a lot of details in b&w as in color

One file of film in Tiff (110 Mo) is x10  times more than digital DNG (10-12 Mo)

We see in the result 

I just made a series of prints in black and white this night and prints in color (Kodak Royal Paper) that I made

today by my Leica store , the color is less saturated and it jumps to the eyes , the lines are softer , the color is

softer more natural !

Wayne .... and I also notice that when I scan in Tiff and convert directly in Jpeg

for posting here

I loss a little in rendering but I loss less than when I correct in example in LR

the software denatures I think a bit the photo in general rendering

Someone here knows the reason ?

Not very far from Henry's hospital. Previously posted many year ago, but it has good memories. XP2
