Old scan from the Canadian Rockies
« on: August 31, 2015, 11:38:01 »
This one is 10 years old. Taylor Lake, Alberta, Canada.
Originally shot in October 2005 on Provia (I believe).
I kept returning to this image until eventually a few years ago I scanned it. Recently made into a B&W version with Lightzone.

A couple more scans from the same year.
Late September, the Rockwall at Floe Lake, Kootenay Nat. Park, BC, Canada.
Colour and B&W versions with Lightzone from scans of Provia slides.

Thank you Frank, all your points much appreciated.
Looking back at the old slides, grain is not always a bad thing. It does lend some character.

Simone, I love the contrast between the snow, rocks and the orange of the tree.

Thank you Mike.
From your comment and Frank's, maybe the image works better in colour.
I like both versions and cannot make up my mind.

Seeing the color image took me into a calendar flip going back, back ... back into the film-only days. I'm think yep, that's what a color slide looked like. Thanks for sharing.

Impressive scenes, regardless of the media.  Which is the original film size?  135?

35mm slide film (Fuji Provia). So yes, 135.
Shot with a Nikon F80.

Thank you for the details.  I like the characteristic rendition.
