A couple of months ago (p1303 #1), I wrote that I wanted to get my processing to match what I wanted to express, that \"Basically, I think that, if one wants to express something, one needs not to avoid being held back by what one thinks other people may want, or by a form of \"exquisiteness\" that a particular camera can achieve — in this case the M-Monochrom\"; that I was \"not after realism — B&W is not a realist medium in any case — but want an expressionist look.\" You can look at the following picture in that vein — and it\'s easier to do that with Tri-X than with the MM and the M9: easier but much more work with the scanning. It\'s the highlights that I like and that I just can\'t achieve in terms of clarity and brightness with the digital Ms.
This picture could be for a series called Alone in Bangkok — only it\'s in Chiang Mai.
