Flaming forest (2021)
— I had forgotten about this image. If I'm nitpicking I'd say I'm not pleased with it because the longer exposure time meant that some of the bushes blurred. Life is hard, it is harder if one is stupid, as the saying goes. I ought to have used a faster film. Still I like how it looks as if the forest floor is on fire (but in a good way, I hasten to add in these times of extreme heat).
It's been reported elsewhere and many of you have probably noticed it in your own film scans, but there is often quite a bit of cyan present in the blues in an image. It took me a while to realise this but pulling cyan down often helps make the colours look a little bit more believable. Not that that is a requirement. We're out here sailing on the vast Ocean of Creativity so most anything goes.
