Right, decided what to do. Now I think I'm off to bed. It has been a long day of shooting.

Stefan... I do not know what you mean by "film genre 'Noir' "

Help me understand

I am looking for main objects that are predominantly black, so I can see how to capture the detail...and not lose so much of it.

Kindly Yours;

I love the old b&w hollywood films, including film noirs.
my favourite recent take on the film noir genre is the graphic novel styles such as "Sin City"...
I tried to pay homage to the genre with one of my recent shoots:

Judith Ann,
Seems it's already explained, just think of detective movies most of them are Noire to.

I think you could combine the two, will give it a try if i've time but no promises.
