Six frames from my archive, shot in November 2012 on Fuji Neopan 400 with a Hasselblad 500 c/m and rescanned with a Nikon Coolscan 8000ED. The last time I scanned these was with an Epson V500 so it’s great to see the improved details that the Coolscan extracted this time around. With black & white negatives in my view there is no need to use scanning software, I simply scan negatives as a positive with all controls off and invert in Photoshop, finding black point, white point and adjusting mid tone to suite. I have been scanning and preparing my black & white images this way for many years and there is for me, no scanning software that beats this method.

Blog

This blog is meant as a way to interact with visitors but primarily a way to show and promote the work of other photographers who's work I admire. See I was once told by a brilliant photographer who worked for the British papers in the 60's and 70's that 'if you want to get good at this thing [photography] then you have to take lots of photos and look at lots of photos'. Everyday I see work that inspires me and here is my chance to say why.
