"Look not for beauty nor whiteness of skin, look for a heart that is loyal within. For the colour will fade, the skin will grow old, but a heart that is loyal will never grow old"

Nature is the best teacher when it comes to accepting change. The past offers a better present and an even better future, should you ever miss it. We should not tame or harness it to an extent that eviscerates its magnanimity.Â
A revised version of the previously posted image, this time the result of scanning and processing almost entirely within Silverfast AI Studio 8, using the Negafix feature. Once in photoshop I spent several hours spotting, and only enhanced the colour a bit in the extreme highlights and the red channel and added a bit of a vignette in the extreme foreground.

Scanned with Epson V850 using Silverfast AI Studio 8 with Negafix. In negafix I locally enhanced colours in some areas (for instance, I quite like a bit of Velvia-style blue shadow detail with colour film, which Ektar doesn't naturally go in for). Result may still have a bit of a red cast, but not at all bad for the amount of time it saved over endless faffing in Photoshop.
"Instead of trying to reproduce exactly what I see before me, I make more arbitary use of colour to express myself more forcefully ... To express the love of two lovers by the marriage of two complementary colours ... To express the thought of a brow by the radiance of a light tone against a dark background. To express hope by some star. Someone's passion by the radiance of the setting sun."
Vincent van Gogh, 1888.
This image was taken in Pous Mela of Santiniketan, where various kinds of artists come to showcase and sell their product. And there she was, continuously drawing her artworks with rapt concentration. She was a Patachitra artist.
Patachitra 's traditional folk art that is practiced in the Indian state of Orissa .
This folk came in the eighth century. The origin and development of patachitra are closely linked to the cult of the god Vishnu , especially in the guise of Jagannath Dev . The performances of the paintings are religious, mythological and folklore (such as Jagannath, Lord Krishna and stories from the Ramayana and Mahabaratha ). Originally, the paintings made ​​by Mahapatra and Maharana, a caste of painters (chitrakars'): their work had a ritual character. Today, the painters in and around Puri ( Raghurajpur and Dandshahi ) more commercial. Besides traditional paintings on fabric processed ('Patta'), they are also paintings on wooden boxes, bowls, the outer husks of coconuts and such doors.
