I love the dark, muted tonality! However, on the white(ish) LuLa forum background, it appears a bit darker than desired. One of those cases when you wish you could show it on a black background.

A very rich and painterly image that really comes alive when expanded in its window with dark the background. Could you tell us a bit about your shooting and processing?

I like it a lot. The velvet-like tones add some mystery.
A good photo!

Good result in terms of exposure time and colour.

Yes but it will cost you a lot...

More seriously, it's shto with A P45+ Phase One back, the lense was a Hasselblad / Zeiss CF50mm Distagon, the body a Phase One 645DF+. I's a 2 min shot, f/8, 50iso, about 30 min after sunset. Processing is very simple, Captrure One for raw processing, some white balance tune because of the ND 6 B+W filter, and in photoshop some sky darkening. In fact I don't remember if I use the ND6 filter...

Thanks much! Refreshing to see that the real work was in the capture rather than Photoshop.

Thank you Pete. No no deep photoshop at all. In fact I don't know how to do such thing from a "normal" picture in photohsop

Beautiful, deep rich tones - tones we haven't seen in a very long time.

Thanks for sharing.
