Bonjour Henri,   I still prefer black and white film (I use almost no colour). The advantages of digital don’t mean much to me. Seeing instant results is not so useful, since what comes out of a cam

Philip  - very interesting and, as always from you, very crisp and sharp - on the highest level.  I think you made a mistake with the film description, though.  You said it was Superia.  But that is not a pro film stock and this clearly looks like a pro film stock.... :wacko:

Thank you!!

Adam - Wow!

 

Very interesting result, Wayne.  A twist on Portra 400, that's for sure!  

Ambiance.

Here is a pair of the same photo of one of my favorite scenes in Central Park (capturing the famous San Remo apartment building (where Madonna's proposal to purchase an apartment was rejected by the condo board in 1985, next door to the Dakota, where John Lennon was shot)) and the Bow Bridge) with wildly different film stocks.  Each rendition serves a different purpose.

Each with the 503cw and 80mm planar

 

First, a split-toned B&W view with Delta 3200 (@1600).  I found the low contrast result from the Delta 3200 to compliment the toning as it enhances the dark tones a bit without actually darkening them and keeping with the native low contrast rendition.  This was actually taken with a very long exposure before the sunrise.

The classic B&W for me, Adam. Interesting to note Gary's comment - the red thing is a definite negative (no pun etc) as far as I'm concerned. And, hey, what happened to the tent thing behind the gaslight?

Time for some more Helsinki, a lovely city.

The church inside shot was a wasted exercise, but I figured if Keith can do it, I can, man it was dim. This is wide open and as slow as I dared (1/15th perhaps).

I didn't realise that it snows in Rome......Just goes to show how much I know

I like the split-toned one a lot and think the toning adds a lot of atmosphere to the shot and in fact seems to make it timeless. As much as I really like the Edgar shot ;) because the colours are truly sublime, if I could choose, I'd have the latter's framing on the split-toned one. I think the large tree in the foreground works well with the massive buildings further away.

 

Same scene, during sunrise, with....Ektar....  :wub:

 

Haha :) The photo might require a bit of explanation though. This was of a "zwarte Piet" (black Pete) band last weekend. Zwarte Piets are Sinterklaas's (Saint Nicholaus's) servants. There's a fierce debate ongoing since a few years about the legend behind Sinterklaas and the fact that people colour themselves up like this. Some say Zwarte Piets are black because they are Moors from Spain and others that they've become black from going down chimneys delivering presents. The controversy even caught the attention of United Nations experts in 2013 who called upon the Dutch government to facilitate a national debate because "many people, especially people of African descent living in the Netherlands, consider that aspects of Zwarte Piet are rooted in unacceptable, colonial attitudes that they find racist and offensive".

Terrific results on Gary.
