Title: Iceographies
Post by: Roberto Frieri on February 16, 2014, 03:49:21 am
Hi to you all.
I've just finished a little project of abstract photography that I've nicely named Iceographies (= Ghiacciografie in italian).
I've printed an album using double-sided Permajet matte paper, and I'm thinking to design and realize a folio.

I've tried on numerous occasions to take those types of images...they never are satisfactory to my palate. 
The lighting just doesn't work to give them more than a "flat appearance".
IMHO, your images suffer the same fate.         :(

Hi wmchauncey, thank you for your comment.
I'm quite satisfied with the raw files conversion in Capture One Pro 7.
However, I can honestly agree with you and say that viewing them on screen is not the best way to appreciate this kind of images.
Therefore I prefer to look at prints, on matte paper with an high brightness.

I have shot similar ice forms, and I agree that these would look great as prints.
