Bull Run Hydroelectric Powerhouse, Autumn 1998

©1998 Gary L. Quay

 

After almost 24 years in a negative binder, I got this one out today. I wanted to see what I could do with it. The proof sheet looks bad. I thought that the picture had a large amount of lens flare at the top, so I never touched it. Today, I wanted to try something new. I scanned a light version and a dark version, and put them together as a HDR in Lightroom to see if I could eliminate enough of the flare to make a go of presenting it. When I looked at the results, I realized that it had just been a terrible proof sheet.

 

I then edited two versions: the HDR version and the darker version. I like the softness of the foggy area on the non-HDR version, so I scrapped the experiment, and when with the straight scan.

 

Camera: Hasselblad 500CM

Lens: 80mm Zeiss Planar

Film: Kodak Technical Pan developed in Kodak Technidol
