Allows Edits? YesAs a black and white, it kind of looks like those old 1950s TV show effects. Not sure if that was what you were going for, but pretty cool nonetheless.

I know that feeling Larry , i have just started trying to take street photos in colour and i know all the years i spent only shooting black and white it is helping with that , mono will always be my home though.
Thanks so much for looking in , i shot that socks shot while i was setting up a scene for some creative colour portraits later this evening but i will sneak a couple of mono ones in as well 🙂

When I had my Fuji X-t3, I designed a bw recipe that I called, “BWLegend.” I tweaked it several times to have Daido’s dark, gritty grain like dramatic black and white look. Obviously can’t be done fully with a recipe, but post processing to add more drama and crush the shadows and almost blow out the whites, got images closer to his genre of photography.

Yeah mate ,i love all his work , The Provoke Era is my thing , he helped tear down conventional rules of composition and lighting to see what photography could communicate on a purely visceral level.
I go almost into a trance when i view his images and bursting at the seams to try make some of my own after i looked 🙂

Allows Edits? YesIt tells a nice story. Very difficult to do in a photograph, but you always seem to manage it.

Helen Levitt was in my head

What feels ordinary and “now” to us will eventually become a fascinating.
Time is a great collaborator
