This is Joseph's and Shannon's daughter, the couple whose wedding I'll be
shooting next month. This is my first try using Koen's method with HC-110.
He's from the Netherlands and has posted some really mindboggling shots
with TriX in 120 at NikonCafe:




a few more added

OM2/Zuiko 1.8/50 lens, Arista Premium 400, HC-110B, 7.5 mins, 20C
Epson 4490 scanned at 2400dpi

Have some more I'll add later, very encouraged with Koen's method.

I agree Bill, it's promising, especially the third picture. Looks a bit grainy but with a pleasing contrast even in a diffused light situation just as this one.

Thanks, Orio, I'll keep working at it. A few more:




The dog refused to be still for his photos, lol, and the 2nd one I cheated by
using SEP to combat the bright areas in her face, which also added even more grain.

Paul, Jussi, and Spleenone, thanks for your comments. I know what this
cost you in credibility and really appreciate it! Laughing

It's fun to shoot at something completely different from the normal day to
day thing, and she really enjoyed having her picture taken.

Thanks again.

I like very much your last shot. It is one of your best portraits ever.

Thanks, Orio, I'm happy with how that turned out, too.

Great portraits, Bill. I really cannot pick one as a favorite Smile.

That's true, indeed, opens a whole world of new inspiration I find. Then working with a cooperative (and so cute Smile) subject is priceless. Good luck for your shooting.

Cheers, M.
