One advantage of the film is you can combine two scans to tone down the highlights as a modified HDR...without the comic book result seen so much these days.What film brings to this picture (and what makes the picture appealing) is the shoulder of the response curve which means that the illuminated windows don't fully blow out, and halation, which leads to a warm glow around the windows. It took 10 minutes or so to spot the scan in Photoshop.
This image suggests a lot that there is to love and hate about film.
Here's a repost of the image with the scratch gone and a minor curves adjustment. This is Mies van der Rohe's Seagrams building; the image is part of my longstanding project photographing icons.

I'll probably shoot both.While it isn't sharp, it has something to it, really, I think you could call this "graphical". I imagine this in large, beautifully framed ...
Woody, do you like shooting film alongside MFDB or is it an experiment you won't repeat?
Very very nice take Wayne
Thanks.Beautiful series Wayne -- very well seen and very well processed! :thumbs:
Jack - What you're seeing is me adding too much post crop vignetting. I need to get a grip on this topic. The Phocus "scene calibration" tool actually does a perfect job on color shift and vignetting and I used it here. I'm reposting with the post crop vignetting (and some slight warming) removed. On the spots I need to be a little less lazy in post - some dust seems to be an issue because I'm constantly moving the back from the H4D to the SDT to the Max and back.Nice capture Woody! What os going on in the upper LH corner -- looks like a color shift, or is it from a polarizing filter? FWIW, you have some rather serious dust
I too am on my laptop - I'll check it out on my calibrated monitor tomorrow.It's certainly sharp! Understand on the vignette, and C1 LCC works similarly to Phocus' calibration I believe. However, I am still seeing in that corner what appears to be a magenta shift relative to the center sky, and then some slight yellow-green in the clouds at the same corner. Could be my laptop if you're not seeing it.
This is very cool. Congratulations on putting this together.
Finally a sunny week-end here in Florence! I tried to shoot from the middle of a piazza full of tourists, with the scanner, the huge tripod, and a large trolley for the other stuff.
The funny thing is that I didn't take the car, but I took the bus (imagine me with all that stuff in a bus!).
