#Photo: First 6x17 colour scan. Ubora Towers, #Dubai

First_6x17_colour_scan

Just thought I'd share this one too. Taken from the same spot and just a few minutes after the first B&W shot that I posted earlier.

Only a test to see how the process works!

#Photo: Rescan of that first B&W 6x17

My_first_6x17_rescan

Thought the first one looked a bit flat. I had a look at the scanning options and realised that there was a way to crop it on scan input, which seems to have improved things somewhat.

Untouched out of the scanner apart from down-scaling (original is close to 350 megapixels). Long way to go yet of course, but it's a start!

#Photo: Here we go. Low res scan of my first 6x17 black and white.

My_first_6x17

Middle of the day, shocking light. Was really just testing to see if I could actually get something down on film. Delighted that anything came out at all if I'm being totally honest!

Where_did_the_traffic_go

6pm on the first day of the working week.

I will be shooting a series of these over the coming days. Worth mentioning that the Sharjah bound traffic (right hand side of the road, travelling away from the camera) was at a virtual standstill. The filter killed the traffic on the other side of the road and over the bridges very nicely.

#Photo: Ubora Towers at night, #Dubai. Lit up, B&W

Ubora_towers_lit_bw-2

Decided to shoot this again since the lights in the office tower were all on this evening.

As with the previous shot, 90mm TS-E with a touch of tilt to take everything but the tower out of focus.
