[Leica] [IMG] PESO - Fallen Pine

[Peter Dzwig]

Lluis,

I was shooting at ISO 400 -its what I seem to use as default speed, because I
used to shoot BW400CN. I might go back and shoot at say ISO 50 or ISO 100 - or
equivalent - and see what I can get.

But yes, you are right it is difficult toget that medium format feel with
digital. Maybe I should go out and buy some ISO 100 and put it in the M3!

> Nice fallen pine Peter, I think digital don’t give a favour to this kind of pictures. In my opinion the contrast is a little washout, if you can go back with film I think it will be better. In the 80’s I’ve tried to follow the Zone System and I’ve shoot several fallen pines, I went there with the grey card and tripod, but even so and taking a lot of care in development I think that medium format works much better for obtain a good gradation.
