I have watched these 2 photos: - - The b&w one's tone is lovely, but really a bit too soft for me. What film and f-value did you use? - - The colored one is just right. It's less contrasty than than most of my pictures indeed. Again, what film and f-value is it? - - How do you scan it? I use PJ100/Supra100 usually as I love its color saturation and fine grain. You make me have the thoughts to reconsider my film selection.
