[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Kodak Gold, for all its virtues, is still a crummy film. You're
shooting with the best optics that modern 35mm film technology affords.
Why not use the best emulsions available? Even allowing for the
vagaries of web transmission, the color balance is off here, the dynamic
range limited, and what might have been an engaging image is overwhelmed
by the mediocrity of its reproduction.
And I am simply and incandescently green (as is the white balance of
this image) with envy that this jaundiced chap is eating as well as he
is, and boozing on white plonk, as well.
Cheers!

Dear LUG,
Attached is PAW 4 - 2005. This was shot at the Cafe Amelie, in
Paris. This man was eating his lunch and reading. I was struck with
the
colors. I hope someone enjoys. Comments appreciated.
