MF (6x4.5 to 6x12) COLOR image sharing

Too bad you couldn't find some bright, colorful subjects! :-)

Did you shoot a gray card for post processing color balance?

Hi Rich,
I try to over expose Ektar by about a stop.

Then I scanned using the Ektar pre-set with Silverfast bringing exposure down a little dodging the out of bounds highlights, and didn't do any other color balancing. I did "cheat" and increase the vibrancy setting a little during the scan. Post processing was pretty much sharpening and cropping along with dust spotting. From what I've read Ektar was designed for scanning and meant to simulate the palette of a slide film more than most print films. I wouldn't use it for studio lit portraits but for this and Renascence fair type events I really like the combo.

The weather cooperated very well at this event, which is always good.

I've got another roll or two from this to develop along with this year's Ren Faire but had to give up the guest bathroom for the grandkids' visit. Will put the Jobo back up in a few weeks.

Nice color images Alan.

I've been tinkering with this Globus 360 again but I think it died for good today, at least without going in for some serious work. I shot a roll of Portra 160NC though today and tried an experiment. Here's the panorama image, made with a Nikon 28mm PC, with my wife at a local state park:



A friend of mine did some spherical projections of 360 degree film images which I wanted to try with this image. Here it is, rotated slightly:
