This transparency has beautifu tonesl on a light table, but it is difficult to replicate on screen with a flatbed. If I choose to drum scan this shot, it would make for a nice print. I have full tonality in the shadows as well as the highlights. It has an almost 3D look to it. I have done my best, within the limitations of my scanner to present it here.
I was a bit unsure about this particular exposure because it was shot on Velvia 50. This is the first time I had done a long exposure on this film (15 minute exposure). I have been warned about potential color shifts, as well as other issues. I gave the film another half stop beyond the metered amount to account for the shadow areas. I still have the highlights, as well as the shadow regions intact. I didn\'t notice any color cast, though a green cast likely would not be detectable in Subway where the water is already quite green.
