This shot was taken during the New Year's Eve in 2005. A friend of mine and I were skiing to a glacier on the western coast of Norway (Folgefonna). We didn't manage to reach the top-most cabin due to very strong wind (close to hurricane force) and low temperature (-15 deg C or thereabout). Luckily, we managed to reach a small cabin, 2 km or so, from the top-most cabin. We stayed at this cabin for one and a half day, waiting for the storm to pass. We were both afraid that the cabin could be blown away. Quite scary, actually. At sunset the second evening (about half past three, local time), the sun showed up for a short time. I jumped out of the sleeping bag, put the skiing booths on, and ran out. I managed to take a few pictures, standing in lee of the cabin. I remember that the shutter speed was low, possibly 1/10 to 1/15 sec. One picture was fine, the others were blurred. A few moments later, the sun was gone, and we were left with darkness and wind. The weather improved during the night, so the following morning we could ski to the top-most cabin.

Superb picture and color in film Helged.

I am curious to know the size of this picture in Mo and in TIFF or RAW-DNG.

How many bits did you use 16 bits or more ? 24 bits ?

When you increase bits you also increase the color palette exactly "color levels"

 

This is fantastic Henri, what a lovely scene.

 

 

And so is this Helge. Great to see you post here.

I don't have the actual scan setup in front of me now, but as I recall I used 16 bit per channel, 4000 dpi resolution, yielding a tiff-file of about 500 Mb. The actual image information is obviously only a tiny bit of what indicated by the file size - but I do like film grain  ;) . And I only scan those captures that I like, so 500 Mb file size doesn't bother me too much... The beauty with such large files are that you can print large, or make crops, with very fine to outstanding results. For my eyes, at least...

 

The wet scanning procedure takes some time, so I only switch to wet scan in the cases when I am not satisfied with scans from Nikon Super CoolScan 9000 ED (due to film flatness problems, or if I want more punch to the colours, for instance). I have never tried drum scans, but the Nikon 9000 and Epson flatbed serve me well.
