[Leica] My Zone System Days

[lluisripollphotography]

In the 80’s I was learning and doing a lot of exercises of the the Zone System, I recognize it was an excellent apprenticeship for learning and acquire practice estimating the light, B&W, developing. Now I compare this time as the are arpeggios exercises for a pianist, the necessary exercises to forget the technique when is playing.

This picture is te scan from a print I’ve do on my Darkroom in Ilford Gallery No.1, I want scan the negative and try to improve the contrasts, when I have more time.
