Really nice Bryan and bbarna!

Thanks Pali. I don't normally do this and hope no one minds, but here is the black and white version. I decided I definitely like it more and will print it sometime this week to 16x20 I think. What do you (or anyone for that matter ) think?

This one with FP4+ and XTOL 1:3. Don't normally use XTOL but I had just mixed up some to develop a few rolls for a friend that I need to use XTOL with, and I really like this combination.

I took my Intrepid (1st Gen) out to the North Carolina Outer Banks and made these two images that I'd like to share. Both on Kodak Ektar and both with the excellent Nikkor 90mm SW f/8.

Sunrise at Avon Pier:


Sunset at Canadian Hole:


The North Carolina Outer Banks is pretty unique in that you have the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the Pamlico Sound on the other. That gives you excellent sunrise and sunset options and these two locations are no more than a 10 minute drive from each other.

Comments and critique are welcome.

Karl, outstanding! Great composition, location and use of the Ektar rendering. I have used Ektar with warmer subjects and your images inspire me to look explore cooler subjects.

[Pali K]

Karl, they are both amazing!

Bryan, the black and white works much better for me. I find that the waterfall in the color version is slightly distracting along with the small ripples in the water. I am sure this will make an excellent print!

I would like to add that if you shoot transparency film, and as long as exposure is good or on the under-exposed side, it is very easy to make B&W internegatives in the darkroom, in case you did not or don't want to take and in-cam version.

[Corran]

Thanks Pali for your thoughts! BetterSense, that's an interesting idea I had not thought of. Might be useful in the future if needed.

Here is an other one from the same spot. Provia 100 developed as a negative.
