The experience of being in fog is so much like living in a Kodak gray card that it's easy to forget the photograph of the experience may require something different. I reprocessed my favorite from the last posting by stretching the grey scale (increasing black level, increasing exposure, increasing contrast) until I thought it would break, vis: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/rtaylor/PICKS/SAILING/300_1708-2.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/65f3dw Better? Here are a couple of others processed the same way. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/rtaylor/PICKS/SAILING/300_1692.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/5zzjkq http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/rtaylor/PICKS/SAILING/300_1744.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/6o84kc A couple of pictures I tried this with did break in the form of showing so much noise they were unusable. But for others it worked nicely. I'm looking forward to hearing what others think. C&C always welcome. Thanks.
