Wow! This is great! I absolutely love the colors of Portra when it's properly scanned and calibrated.

Halnaker Tree Tunnel - Fomapan Test by Toby Key, on Flickr

Halnaker tree tunnel is quite local to me so I often go there to test film or cameras as I have plenty of old images I can use as references. This time I shot a few sheets of Fomapan 200 to get a handle on its reciprocity characteristics. For this test I rated the film at 125iso. Fomapan has a reciprocity factor of 3x from 1-10 secs, so my 2 second metered exposure translated to a 6 seconds, and even then I would have liked to close down another stop. Luckily it was very still. It's quite a challenging scene, shot in the early evening so the sky is bright but there are deep shadows on the left of frame. To counter the contrast I reduced development by 20%. Overall I quite like the film but it is not the easiest to handle. The bright blue anti halation dye that has to be pre-soaked out of the film before you start development. I forgot this step on a previous test and was rewarded with tiny white spots over the film

Beautiful shot, Tobias. There are few, if any places like that in the rest of the world, and I'm sure they are rare in England. Thanks for showing us.

This a segment of Stane Street (literally 'stone street'), the old Roman road from Chichester to London.

There is of course the famous "Dark Hedges" in Ireland too, although with storms, poor tree health and massively increased foot traffic it is deteriorating rapidly.
