I'm terrible at titling my shots, this one was no exception. Shot with a Mamiya RB67 on Kodak 100TMX.

Very impressive shot and the B&W conversion works really well.

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

You don't seem to be t4errible at tilting your shots. this one is interesting.

A little more PP...not sure if I'd like more contrast or just a bit more sharpening ...to make it pop a bit more.

I meant titling, as in naming, not tilting. As for the PP, the shot was scanned from a negative so I try and present it with as little PP as possible, however I do agree on the sharpening.

I like it!

One comment TJ:

A scan is just a technical step that provides a machine translation from the analog domain into a digital domain. If you wouldn't trust your images to machine prints from a drug store, don't trust your final results to a machine scan. PP is where you translate the soul-less digital translation into your print, rather than the equivalent of an automated 4 x 6 drug store type print.

You pose a valid point. I agree with you completely and I'll start to do some PP on my film scans.

A classic angle of a great subject. I agree about the need for PP.

I'm a sucker for bridge shots. Very well done, I love the B&W conversion.
