I thought some of you might be interested in seeing a detail. This is a "100% crop" which is pretty meaningless with film. In this case, it is 1:1 from the scan at its highest resolution which is 4032 by 2688 pixels (compared to the K20D's 4672 x 3104).

Best wishes, Kris.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Is it just me or did we loose a whole load of postings? There are completely empty threads in other sections of the fora.

Funny thing is, the index pages show them as having been posted. How very odd!

Here is one I posted earlier...

Gareth... I do take dire photos, I just don't post too many of them. Exhibit A, m'Lud... Same shoot as before:

So it's not just me, then?

Phew! I was getting worried that the work admins had done something to stop me seeing things.

BTW very nice atmospheric photos

I love the Triforium shot, even if the centre is a touch burnt out. Never had the fortune to see the place but from the look would love to>

I could burn it in a little, plenty left in the neg, but when I tried it I preferred the contrast of the original. The window to the right is the main problem, it looks a little weird if you burn it in too much. I could try rescanning with a lower exposure and blending images.

Still one heck of a shot Kris.

Will have to go and see for myself.

It is only open for specially arranged trips, given how high up it is! Lovely views from up there though.

Nice pics Kris. See Barrie's other posting on this same subject, a Pentax User meet could be part of the bigger event. Only a slect few get up into the Triforium Kris, its not for the general public or the faint hearted with no head for heights.

I am glad to report the triforium shot was accepted to the PPG. I was beginning to think my portfolio would consist of nothing but sunsets/sunrises. Given that, and the fact this is a 24 year old BW film shot, I am particularly pleased with this one getting in. Twelve in now, but a long way to go to catch up with some of you!

Best wishes, Kris.
