Out of curiosity: Did you choose the white balance for a specific reason? It doesn’t make the picture look „bad“ in any way but I think it looks tinted in blue 😀

Agreed - it is Fujichrome Provia and all the images from that film coming out of my scanner (Coolscan) has a deep blue tint. So, your observation is spot on.  I fixed most of the images through color correction and desaturation but it sure doesn’t look like I did enough on this one…

Here is a second try with a little brightening as well - still a bit cool in color balance but hopefully easier on the eye…

Indeed this one seems a bit more balanced, but it's a difficult mixed light situation anyway, daylight with slightly blueish stones mixed tungste light on yellowish walls. 

What I sometimes do in these kind of situations is just lower the saturation of the blue channel, increasing the temperature setting will probably make the tungsten lit area too yellow/orange.

Looks like a classic combination of daylight and tungsten lighting.  Did the scanner try to find something in the middle?  From an aesthetic point of view, do you want to move daylight towards white and have the lights move the other way, or emphasise the presence of daylight?

Thanks John - honestly I am not interested in achieving any particular color palette. I simply left it in color due to pure laziness ( also exhibited in my initial post…). I am usually more interested in the moment - trying to tell a story through an image. In this case the depiction of a possibly unwanted history lesson. So, B&W might be the best way to avoid the aforementioned pitfalls and possibly succeed in telling the story without distractions.

Thanks Olaf. Most of them are published in this forum for film photos. All, including the digital photos can be seen in my Flickr account. :))

I went to flickr and you have some great photos there.

I miss Kodachrome, especially at sunset (and especially in Greece!)...

ah d23, the only receipt I can remember was going like one once , one pound and one galon.  maybe the inspiration for the song one scotch one bourbon and one beer although metol and sodium sulfite may be less appealing.  ok I digress as usual.

Xicara de Café, your catalog of everyday objects is truly a remarkable project, and I’m impressed by the quiet dignity with which these items present themselves to us. I’m curious to see what else awaits us.

Must be titled eponymous.  I like these tones or the absence to it.
