Description Commonwealth Avenue Bridge, Canberra, Australia.


I thought I'd add some technical details too.

iso 100, now that I think of it, I'm not sure what the F was. 15s exposure. I took this on my F60 (film cam), not my powershot, hence the different aspect ratio and generally better image quality (i think..)

desaturated in photoshop.

Fantastic lines, the reflections are beautiful and clear, and I absolutely love the grain, something that only film can make work with the photo, none of this 'fake' grain with digital. Great shot!

thankyou so much for your detailed comments, I really appreciate it

I agree with you about grain. On digital, whether it's intended or unintended (for example, setting high iso on digital), it still comes out sharp and lossy, film is kinda like vinyl records. It isn't as clear, but it has a certain warm quality to it...

Yeah, I'm starting to appreciate film more and more now... Digital has its good points, well, has many good points, but its so much fun developing the film and playing around in the darkroom.
