wilhelmn Posted May 17, 2002 Share Posted May 17, 2002 Yesterday there were black storm clouds swirling over South Florida. While driving to supper I looked up at them and thought "They don't look real; they look more like special effects." Then I realized what they lacked to make them appear real to me -- NO GRAIN! Boy, talk about being brainwashed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tse_sung_wu7 Posted May 17, 2002 Share Posted May 17, 2002 Where was your camera Willhelmn? I'd love to see the sky of my childhood- here in SF there are headlines when there's one lightning bolt during a storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilhelmn Posted May 17, 2002 Author Share Posted May 17, 2002 Maybe more like a Senior Moment. I wonder if today's kids might feel the same way about reality if they can't see any pixels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheridan Posted May 17, 2002 Share Posted May 17, 2002 Hello Willhelmn. We all read you. The answer in theory, but a bit difficult everyday in practice...always carry that Leica with you loaded with Tri-X.You can rate the film at 800 to cover most situations,push process and photograph those clouds to look acceptably grainy.
