For my prints I like to use expired colour paper from kodak; if it's not too old, it has this nice tint that stays in the highlights.
And, when printing, I always go for a rather warmish hue; I don't like those perfectly neutral-coolish prints...
That’s awesome ! I thought it was straight from the negative. So if I understand, you printed from your negative and then scanned it to add an extra layer of texture and color.
Is there something you might “loose” from scanning from a print (such as resolution, grain texture etc) ? Have you ever considered doing it digitally?
When printing in the darkroom I always go for a final gallery quality (in my case that means an old school hue and quite some dodging and burning); scan is just there to get it on the screen, but I do not use digital adjustement.
There is a lot that's getting lost from print to scan! The depth especially, brilliance... you just can't beat an analog print, still.
I do use digital as well, but it's not my preference. I've been working on large fromat colour film for 30 years by now; I know my tools, I wouldn't want to re-learn it all for the digital process. And I also couldn't afford the equipement to produce that same quality....
Instead of this, I am in the process of installing a high end analog printing lab on my new property.
Hi! Great to see you'r ok. Best wishes 😉
This is gorgeous @captainklaus. I wonder: what gives it that yellow/greenish tone? Is it part of the film characteristics?
Looking forward to see more if your work !
thanks @atmospheric-haze
