This is a remake of an old image. It was originally one of a set of three takes of a washed up jerry can on a deserted beach in the winter. I had agreed to include this shot at an exposition next weekend where 10 of my shots will be shown in A2 format. This shot has given me massive headaches over the last few days. It is from my 20D/Tamron 28-70 days. Until now I had never printed it larger than A4 in which it looked perfectly fine. Printed in A2 however, the noise and banding suddenly looked awful. Combined with this were sploggy areas where the sensor/lens combination just couldn't resolve the detail. Removing the noise just made these even worse. I have spent hours in the last few days playing with masks to camoflage as much as possible and finally I have a print that I am happy with. It is also good to see how much better my newer shots are in large format.
greetings,
Helen
