Of course you could add "grain" for that tri-x look. :-) Seriously, try adding about 2-5% noise in PS and see what you think..... -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Steve Barbour Sent: Saturday, January 29, 2005 3:03 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] latest paw... Absolutely BD, In some ways, and for these particular images I prefer this "look" , though in general you are right ... Though not always looking for a clearer view of what's behind, by increasing the dof...actually, I do love the look of Tri X... The technical advantage of a C41 film is 1) easy development, by others, in an hour, and 2)....Digital Ice that reduces dust and scratchs virtually to zero....but that's a marriage of convenience. In general, the look of silver based film, that of many of my favorite photographers, and including your own images in that medium...is a look that I admire, and would love to achieve... Steve B. D.
