This crop,is better. Wish you movies a little to the right so the other guy head is not hidden behind the lamp.

And the image reminds me of one of Robert De Niro mafia movie. The setting, lighting and mood :-)

Also interesting the posture of the lady, looking detached from the group of people she's with.

I wonder how a B$W conversion could impact this image!

Thanks, i looked at it in black and white and it just seemed so much like the color gave it a unique character.

Great shot, terrific colors!

Using Nik, Define 2 one can get rid of most of the noise.

Then it looks even better to my eyes.

is this Cinestill film?

Lovely scene captured but I wonder whether is a way to achieve black coloed blacks rather than what seems to be a tinge of blue. The artifacts in the shadows seem due to underexposure and not the pushing of the film.

 

I also would have thought that a tungsten film (if this is what it is) would have controlled the yellow hues in the reflection of the lights and in the face. Are you happy with the WB? In many cases, there is no right answer in WB and it all depends on the mood one wants to convey.

Cinestill film. Pushed to 3200. Might explain a lot. But I thought everything worked to convey an even warmer mood running counter to her isolation from the table.

I use this film a lot and have pushed two stops and think you should get cleaner results with "blacker" blacks. This is why I think the issue may have been underexposure a stop or so in the overall scene. One solution might be to up the contrast in order to crush the shadows, which are useless in this scene anyway.

Very nice image. I also like the second crop better.

It's grain exaggerated by the push (and possibly the scan; is it a Coolscan?), no?

 

I'd be interested in seeing how well the Nik software handles this situation. I often push C41 1-3 stops but have so far used CS6's tools to deal with the grain.
