Farm Scene
This shot was taken about a year ago, with my Leica M7, a film camera. I was shooting with Delta 400 I believe, and the tonality I achieved is really wonderful. This image was always appealing to me, and I think it had to do with the white trailer in the centre of the image, standing out because of the contrast. Without that white subject, in the midst of the grey tonality of the majority of the scene, it would be a bit boring. The tonality of the sky also lends an appealing aspect to the scene as a whole. The negative was scanned into my Mac, and was touched up a bit to achieve the proper contrast of the original negative, which was lost in the scan. One of my favourite shots.
