ALPA SWA + Hasselblad CFi 180/4 + CFV II 50c
Classic shots, Brandon!I've lived in Chicago and the surrounding area for over 30+ years now, but haven't done a tour of Wrigley Field until today. Ran into a fellow medium format photographer from Indiana, we talked Fuji GF and Hasselblad X systems while hanging out in the Cubs dugout!
GFX 100S and GF 32-64.
Thanks Joe! Shot in RAW, and using Capture One then applied the Acros profile.,. Usually Acros+G or Acros+R.. then brought into photoshop, where I used Lumenzia to do contrast curves on a set of dark / mid / light tone luminosity masks. Some minor dodging and burning on a couple to help direct the viewer's eye.Brandon, excellent b&w treatment of a subject made for b&w. I love it. And having lived in the Chicago area for 15 years, I'm still a Cubs fan. Which "recipe" did you use? One of the Fuji film emulations?
Yep, the TK panel is another popular one. One of the reasons I like Lumenzia is that there's a pretty active FB group where the author participates, so easy to get questions answered and to learn tips/tricks. I'm pretty lazy myself, it's very powerful stuff, but I mostly end up using it for doing those contrast curves limited to specific 'zones' of the image, as opposed to an overall global contrast cruve.Brandon, thanks for the detail. I had not heard of Lumenzia and had to do a Google search. Looks interesting. I have use the Tony Kuyper luminosity masking panels in the past but have been lazy lately.
