Thanks Andrew. This time I was using Ilford Delta 100 which gets developed in normal BW chemicals. The C41 films are Ilford XP2 and Kodak BW400CN.
The New York images were digital rather than film. I didn't take the K20D on this trip!
Best wishes, Kris.

Some nice shots here Andrew but "Stone Roses" is the stand-out shot for me. Lovely. K.

Images taken during a recent visit to Tate Britain.
All shot using a Pentax KM, SMC "K" 50mm f/1.2 lens and Ilford Delta 100ASA. It was so dim in the museum that the KM refused to meter with any lens with a smaller aperture than the 1.2! Mostly shot around f/1.7 to f/2.8.

The blues are the issue in the colour version, they don't look natural. Perhaps just adjust the saturation a little? Or selectively turn down the blue?
I only have one problem with Tim's crop and that is I have seen it before on picture postcards etc.! There is something to be said for trying something a little different.
I'm afraid I don't like the BW conversions. The first is the best but needs a bit more punch, the second looks a little odd (like a BW HDR image), the last one is too harsh. Sorry.
Having said all that, they are nice images and worth playing with to get them "right".

I only ask as my only two rolls have come back and I am struggling to get decent digital versions from the scans I have done.
What software are you using? Vuescan has a Kodachrome mode which helps (but isn't perfect).Does anyone know of a place which will scan Kodachrome slides? (preferbly in Manchester)

Hey. No throwing things at my old K10D...
I love the first image. Super BW conversion.

Gorgeous photos with number three being my firm favourite. But then, I really like castles and a quite like snow! Good stuff and well done. K.
