Lies the cave that wasn't there!

This is another derivation from a Tri-X black-and-white negative I made in the 1970s. I copied the original negative with a macro lens, saved it as a raw file, and converted it to a positive in Negative Lab Pro plug-in for Lightroom Classic. Then I sent it to Photoshop for Neural Filtering, saved it back to Lightroom Classic, tweaked it some more, and this is the result. No compositing or layering was done here.

Below that is the B&W conversion.

I really like the color shot treatment. It is just very different from what one expects to see.

I'm amazed at what these filters do to an image. There are infinite possibilities. Some of the color in this image comes from a monitor calibration check target! That target has all sorts of color patches, gray scales, color and black-and-white photos embedded in it...
