About Tritone.
This film is for portrait, but I am looking for a film that has a large dynamic range, and pretty flat. I'm kind of staurated myself of oversaturated film. I turned it to B&W just to abstract the lines in the compo.

Tonal range is excellent. The graphic feel of this shot is strong. Well done!

Christian, a most enjoyable picture, and great to see a fellow Montrealer posting images of familiar scenes.

Re your question about scanning, Christian. Let me say first of all that I mostly use 120 size film and I get satisfactory scans from these negs with my Epson Perfection 1650 desktop scanner. I have also scanned some of my 35mm negs the same way and the results are far from ideal - there are some in my portfolio here. I have no experience of the Nikon Coolscan IV bt it is reputed to be one of the best dedicated scanners. My experience with my scanner is that they need a lot of careful adjustments to give of their best. In your case I wondered if the problem was to do with clour management profiles.Perhaps the user manual for your scanner will provide some clues (and answers) to the problem you are experiencing. I find it best to get a straightforward unadjusted scan from the Epson and do all the adjustments in Photoshop rather than in the scanner itself. I hope you clear up your scanning problem soon - I know how frustrating these things can be. Ps. Many thanks for your kind comments. Best wishes. David

Do you still have the Zenit? My mother bought a Zenit-E soon after I was born, some 23 years ago. We still have it, and it still works. Gotta love a camera that's built like a self-defense weapon and doesn't need any batteries, not even for the light meter. In this time of electronic cameras in plastic bodies, that trusty chunk of steel is a pleasure to handle.

I am surprised that this is a tritone because the overall tonal range is not very wide. Is this to do with the original filmstock. I can understand why you are looking for a film with a greater dynamic range. I've always used Ilford FP4 rated at 200 ISO in Paterson Acutol and it yeilded an excellent dynamic range. I never bothered to try anything else after that - I use Tri-X in low light situations. This kind of scene is a challenge for any film. Correct exposure is expedient so as to retain tone and detail in the highlights. You've managed that well here.The vertical framing is good but it seems too tightly cropped on both sides.You don't need to stick religiously to the rrule of thirds as long as your eye establishes an overall balance within the frame.

Matej, my first steps in amateur potography were with B&W. That was around 1967. I had bought my first SLR - the Zenith E - at the USSR pavillion of the 67 World Expositon in Montréal. I processed my rolls in the basement and had a small lab for my prints too. It was a lot of fun. I was 20 by then and kept up with B&W most of the time, except for slides while travelling. I shared a better lab with friends until my 30's. I lost all my prints and films when our house was flooded while I was away on travel.
I would not hesitate to go back to a home lab for the ritual is still alive deep inside. But I confess that for the sake of money and time, digital processing is prety cool.

B&W is to now the best medium to experiment with dynamic range - it speaks wide, not loud.

Christian, if you are tired of strong colours, why not shoot a couple of rolls of BW film? Love the title, btw.

I like the caption, yes a well placed spot of snow. I'll bet it was nice & quiet out there. The falling snow seems to muffle the sounds. Nice Picture.

Nicely done Christian. I too am growing weary of oversaturated images, not that I haven't been guilty myself at times. The lines and depth of this one are seductive. Watercolor, not neon, in BW. Regards. -Tim
