Yessssss.....finally after all this shooting, I got Kodak on a leash! =) I'm finally getting where I want to with all this grain. Somehow it's giving my scanning software a hard time, but I'm doing it with ScanVue (nice stuff, geeze...hamrick.com). Well.....I'm sooooo happy......I've send this first one in for this month's texture contest.

Good image Rork, I like the grain...the texture of clouds! now that's something I wouldn't have thought of!

I agree these are beautiful....did you use a red filter on these...? They are so dark and gorgeous!

I am, therefore I create.......

OK - give it up, Rork. Tell us how to make pictures like that. Joe

Oh man! That top one is amazing.

You take a sunny day, with lots of clouds. You put it together with a few rolls of Kodak Portra 400 b&w. Mix it together with a 50mm 1.8 Nikkor on an F4 at f16, and drink it when the sun just about comes back from behind the clouds. The strong wind and the grain makes it a bit fuzzy. The sun makes the contrast. But I'm going to start a PETA for film, cause they abused my negatives! They took them out of the fuji machine with their hands, no gloves or anything....hung them against a wall! No wonder some have scratches running from 'coast to coast'. Criminals....

Nikkor, huh? I have a roll of tri-x in the old Minolta now.. I can't wait! But I'm takin'm to a pro lab! Joe

I agree, first one is stunner. Nice shots. .n

Well, those sweet grains are superb, and I liked them better in the second one (I'm a fool for obvious grains..!).

From the photographical point of view, I still like the second one better somehow...
...Probably for its "wilder" composition, for the "flowing" blackness, for the rich greys, and for a few more possible features that I cannot name at this time of the night... :)

Regards...

Well, I think the second image is "open" to enclose me in, while the first one is quite contented in itself that it leaves me aside (outside)... Was it a too weird comment..? :)

No, not at all....very interesting actually =)
