Found an old binder with a lot of my early years model work and for some reason got motivated and am starting to scan most of them for the archives. Set up a bellows and my camera to do the scanning so will see how that works out.
One of the few film era shoots I shot in color, one cause it cost so much more than self loaded B&W, and two, back then you were never quite sure where to take the film to develop. Anyway, some local club shoot at a small airport with this very nice model. Circa 1997, Fuji Provia 100 Film with a Canon 1n camera, unknown lens or settings. Have a great Friday all.
Including the BW version cause I think I may like it a bit better.
Really hard to choose. Both are great!

It is hard to choose, but I will go for the color version. Good work...

I like the first one. I understand that it is an old shot but if a little (only a little) of the colour bias were removed and the image sharpened slightly, this would be great. I love the old feel. And I like the conglomeration on the left (whatever that is). "My view" is based solely on minor improvements and whether you have the software/inclination to do so . Very atmospheric shot though. And very indicative of that era.

I agree, the B&W s a better choice on this one. Nice model and pic.

Yea, I originally did remove some of the color tint and saturation, but maybe could use a bit more on the reds/warms (probably why I like the B&W one better). Maybe the new one is better? Interesting in looking back at old color slides how they each seemed to have a bigger color bias than I remembered at the time (at least when scanned). The image is a bit soft, the slide is a bit soft, but I also think that my "slide duplication" method may have introduced a "not perfect" focus. I am rushing through a bunch of old slides (travel, models etc) and 85% quality is fine for this project, maybe if I find some ones that I love I will spend the more than 5 seconds scanning them and nail the focus a bit better. The conglomeration on the left is actually the reflection of her dress and leg in the reflective part of a plane.
As always, thanks for feedback. Sure the site will see more of this pretty lady in the coming weeks.
