peter_bull 0 Posted August 20, 2001 This was taken under moody red light conditions at the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970. It has never been published apart from here. This image was scanned from the original 35mm Tri-X neg which was pushed to 800ASA. The big bromide prints from the neg that I did at the time on fairly hard paper have a very sixties rough grainy feel, but this scan has softened the grains, so this is a smoother look to the image than I am used to seeing. I tried to recapture the original feel digitally, but Photoshop grain effects don't get the right grittiness, so here it is... Link to comment
