And you hate to see it it go down the drain. The silver that is. As in its not all about blacks and whites but the grays which fit in between. Normally in darkroom work people start out wanting to use a contrast paper two grades up from what would be normal for the neg and after awhile they realize the thrills they get from watching such images appear in the tray gets overshadowed but the rich range of subtleties the photograph processs makes for. Though this is probably digital I think most of it does apply. I think if you made two prints one with the jacked up ultra contrast and put them next to each other plenty of your nicest smartest more tasteful friends would admit to you that clobbering power is great but more subtlety gives you and image with more staying power. A more mature look. With a much later bedtime. -------------------- Mark William Rabiner Photography http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/lugalrabs/ mark at rabinergroup.com Cars: http://tinyurl.com/2f7ptxb > From: Marc Dufour <foto at marcdufour.net> > Reply-To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Date: Mon, 29 Nov 2010 14:44:26 +0100 > To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Subject: Re: [Leica] The sea never ends > > Thank you so much, Tina ! > It's a theme I'll never get tired ;-) > Marc > > -----Mensaje original----- > De: lug-bounces+foto=marcdufour.net at leica-users.org > [mailto:lug-bounces+foto=marcdufour.net at leica-users.org] En nombre de > Tina > Manley > Enviado el: lunes, 29 de noviembre de 2010 14:34 > Para: Leica Users Group > Asunto: Re: [Leica] The sea never ends > > Thanks, Marc!
