It's not often that I visualize exactly what I want the ultimate picture to look like after processing while I am taking the photo. This was one of those times. Chauffeurs waiting at the airport for designated passengers. a7r with FE 24-70. Post in LR and Nik Silver Efex Pro.
Thanks for looking.

Lovely set, Dale! The second one is my favorite. I'd love to hang one like that on my wall! Have you tried cropping out just a bit more from the bottom and the left sides?
Totally RAD (Replichrome) or VSCO has film emulation plugins. Jack can confirm which one he uses. I'm yet to try totally rad but heard good things about it.
Great page of shots! Took a few days off and this thread jumped several pages!
Some taken with the A7 and CV 35 1.2 ll, all WO.
Thanks for looking,
Gregg

I've been meaning to ask, how are you performing this film emulation from a scanner?
I don't understand...]
As Manu mentioned Totally RAD Replichrome I & II has camera profiles and presets that can be used with Adobe ARC and Lightroom to emulate many films and transparencies/slides with various settings, including different commercial scanners.
What I like about Replichrome in particular is the the program actually doesn't install anything (say like Nik software plugins), but rather copies camera profiles and presets into common folders within Adobe locations on Mac/PC.

This is not anything special, just a friend of mine on a recent job we shot together.
It's quite amazing how the compressed landscape in a flat light cheats the distance and scale.
He is standing on a high cliff and there is a big drop right behind him.
You can see a red truck parked far in the background.
Finally warming up around here, got out today for a Sunday outing and took the FE 70-200mm along. Got some pretty good ones, heres a few I have gone thru so far. The white in the background is still ice on Lake Superior.
