That's one of the things I used to really like about playing around with Photoshop. | |

Sepia, Baby! Smooches;) Cool. You look fantastic in sepia. Then again, you'd look fantastic in blue, green, red or pretty much any other colour I can think of anyway.  Thank you
Smooches;) | |

Tom said: retina said: They're actually digital pictures that are a part of a little experiment of mine. I'm usually an extreme puritan when it comes to photos and don't want to manipulate them at all. It takes away the authenticity. But this time I allowed myself only the liberties that are available to regular photography, i.e. toning, cropping, sharpening of contrast. Sepia is one of those tools (I believe it is a filter), so I don't feel like I've crossed over into the world of Photoshop and such tools for cheating and making things artificial. Thanks for the compliment by the way! It feels great since I know how very good you are yourself at photography. Several big companies that manufacture B&W papers, chemistry, and other supplies have gone belly up the past couple years. I think Illford is through, as is JOBO, and Kodak (if I remember right) no longer makes B&W paper. Digital might be our only option for toning in a few more years. I used to use the illford cool tone paper, then put it through a really strong selenium toner bath. The black areas would take on a deep burgundy cast that was incredible. Very nice photographs, especially the last one. Where were you standing when you shot that? What filters did you use to tint them, photoshops built in ones or a third party plugin like digital filmtools? last semester the ilford glossy fiber b&w is all we used so i dunno if they stopped making it or what. that would be fucked up as my school swears by it for every semester for photo 1 | |
