A fine impromptu informal portrait, with a lens not normally associated with portraiture. Edited March 26, 2022 by wda Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sort of makes a portrait of the environment as well as a portrait of the person. Salgado, his wife Lelia and their second son Rodrigo are acquaintances. They visited us in Java. We spent a wonderful week in their company. Talking photography and taking photos of course. I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to spend time with them. I do hope or paths will cross again. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are welcome lookbook. I hesitated before posting this image not wanting to be a « show off ». I posted this image of a photographer that I too admire, who is still passionate about photography and concerned about the environment. I think he is an inspiration for many image-makers and for us humans who at time forget to take care of Mother Earth. Regards. Carl. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody thinks you're a show-off - It's nice what you're still writing here - it also goes well with the photo above. Sebastiaõ knows about his responsibility and maybe that's why he continues to work on it, to open our eyes. Have a nice weekend Carl Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stray cat Posted March 28, 2022 Share #3036 Posted March 28, 2022 On 3/22/2022 at 5:57 PM, jakontil said: Mp + 50 summilux kodak gold 200 Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! This portrait and the one posted a little later are absolutely beautiful, Jakontil. However I couldn't help but think that, to my eyes, your model's skin had a somewhat unhealthy looking pallor. I really hope you don't mind, but I've taken the liberty of just quickly removing a little cyan from the overall cast in this picture and, again to my mind, it gives a more pleasing skin (and hair/fabric) tone. I might be well off the mark here as obviously I was not privileged to attend the photo session. I do find, though, that as a general rule scans from colour negatives, especially those taken in the shade as here, often give a palette which is a little too much toward cyan and it is a relatively quick fix. Again, my apologies if I'm out of line here: 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
erl Posted March 28, 2022 Share #3037 Posted March 28, 2022 I completely agree with phil on this. I noted there was a Cyan cast but didn't comment. Frequently I see 'casts' in images posted here but don't comment because it is possible the poster intended that colour. However, a lot of films do have tendency to colour bias. Ektar being an obvious one. It flicks from Red to Cyan very easily. This suits some subjects, but not usually portraits. Then there is the question of monitor calibration although I don't think it is quite the bogey man it is sometimes made out to be. Of course light quality plays a big part, especially for film. Digital sensors handle odd light sources better. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

E.g. I do that a lot in Capture One and it is really easy to do that. May I ask what is your film scanning process setup? A dedicated film scanner, flatbed scanner or "DSLR" scan setup?
