Hi Geedee,

>What do you guys reckon ?

Here is a black-and-white shoot I took on real film. It's a scan from the print.

It seems to convey a different atmosphere than the converted digital shots, I'm not sure why.

It certainly does not use the full available dynamic range, and it's slightly overexposed as well in the light parts ... maybe it's lack of technical perfection that signals "authenticity" in historic shots?

Regards,

Henning (HoHun)

Thanks guys. That was a shot I wouldn't normally take because it was so far away, but with the snow capped mountains and the invasion stripes, I kind of envisioned it like the above shot when I snapped it. Heat shimmer, distance and the overexposure issue I was having that day actually helped give it that vintage look. Sometimes bad setting work out okay.

One more, the classic De Havilland Tiger Moth. What a beauty.
