Grasses at sunset

On a forest edge near Saint-Hubert, Belgium, in the early 1980's. This photo was shot on Fuji Superia 200 film in a time I mainly shot B & W (because I liked the 'abstract' qualities of shooting in B & W, could develop the films myself and it was cheaper). The sun was setting fast and there was some beautiful warm light on these grasses. I used the light to capture both the warm colors and the very slight movement of the grasses in the evening breeze. Scanned on an Epson V 850 Pro. Your comments are very welcome.

An excellent scan of this old film, the golden colors of the sunset enhances this beautiful image, your interesting notes take me back to the years when I also personally developed the photos, ciao Giangiorgio

Hi Giangiorgio,

 

thank you for your friendly comments! There was something almost magical to developing and printing your own material; not instantly seeing the results of what you photographed made it exciting. Kind regards, Vincent

Hi Frieder,

 

thank you very much for favoriting this photo! Kind regards, Vincent

pleasing mix of just vertical and just horizontal.

Hi Jamie,

 

thank you for your friendly comment! I'm glad you like this simple shot. Kind regards, Vincent

Beautiful golden grass picture, Vincent! This slight wobble is perfectly captured. Glad you saved and shared it! High quality 40 year old film scan. Bravo! Sincerely, Tatiana

Hi Tatiana,

 

thank you for your wonderful comments on this old photo and for favoriting it! The evening light was enchanting in an understated way. I'm glad I made this photo in color when I shot predominantly B & W. Kind regards, Vincent
