Polarized Oak #2

A combination of frost, snowfall and a clear winter sunset lights up the oak once or twice every winter.

 

Shot on Fuji Sensia 100 (slide film) using a Nikon FM3a / Nikkor 20mmAF-D

 

Process:

Epson V600 scan @ 2400dpi

Photoshop: Auto Levels and then manual colour balance tweaking,

noise reduction and unsharp mask at original size, then resized to 1200x800,

then another sharpen filter.

 

I got 100 shots with the d90 and a good roll of film with the fm3a - none of the digital shots came even close to these colours.
