> Sliders slung about, pixels bent, all in the service of an excellent image.
Thank you. As I look at my settings, I have to agree that they got
slung pretty hard. There are no less than three that are jammed
against the stops.
I don't think the logo is reflective. It's just pretty bright given
that it is white and the setting sun was at a perfect reflective
angle.
Rick, I do like the tones too. It is one of those times where the
specific strength of the E-3 comes into play. Just like the L-1, the
E-3 seems to do a remarkable job at B&W conversions. In fact, the
E-3's in-camera B&W conversion is really good. Where the E-1 is so
outstanding at color, it lacks a bit in converting to B&W. Where the
E-3 lacks in color, it makes up for it in B&W. With this picture, I
was able to make it, essentially, a colorized B&W image and it held up
well.
I have another picture, showing the entire scene, being edited. I
copy/pasted the exact same settings to the other picture and it looks
great, but with just moving the saturation slider to -100, it becomes
a fantastic B&W image. AT -50 saturation, it looks just like a
hand-tinted B&W print.
Long live the E-3 (among the other classics).
