As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! Thank you Charles for reminding me of this exquisite picture by Marc. To me, it begins and ends any discussion on the topic of "bokeh", and also on the importance of choosing the right tools for the job. Marc has a highly attuned sense of the importance of "field" in his portraits, and this is a prime example. The lens he has used, the 1950s - 1960s Elmar 50 - produces a wonderful softness in its out-of-focus areas which superbly play off the sharpness of the subject. The film chosen - and I agree with Adam that it is surprising to find that it is Tmax - has just the right balance of tonality and sharp/softness that complements the hardware choice. Marc has sympathetically chosen light - as in light-colored and light-drenched - background elements which further enhance the figure-ground relationship. That relationship in this exquisite example is a totally symbiotic one - each element plays off against the other and each is accordingly strengthened. This is a picture our eyes find difficult not to dwell on (even over and above the beauty of Marc's model!). The model's expression and gesture is inscrutable, as is the mystery of her milieu. The bokeh, to my mind at least, perfectly illustrates what the aesthetic quality of the blur produced in the out-of-focus parts of an image is capable of adding to what would already be an incredibly strong picture, pushing it to the stratosphere. Brilliant. 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I denoised this, because I was deeply unhappy with the commercial processing, converting the film into a tiff file. I'm going to try them again, but settle for a jpeg.

Brilliant. Thanks a lot Phil for your kind words and for taking the time to discuss the photo. This photo is also one of my „all time“ favorites. The tmax works here really good in combination with the lens but I think the most important part is the light on her face. And like in most cases I get the best shots almost at the end of a shooting where you are relaxed and where both feel more comfortable. But to be honest you also need some luck if you use film. You never know the result after pressing the shutter and sometimes you win but of course sometimes you loose and the photo is bad. But one good shot really compensates the others. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
