Default Beach Scene C&C



Ever since I developed and printed my first roll of film in the 60's, I've been sort of a nut for high contrast. Am I over doing it during conversion?

Looking for honest opinions!



Marc

This is a good image/development. Love the composition and the tonality.

Nice photo Marc. I don't think this has too much contrast, in fact, you might want to bring the contrast up a wee bit in the sky just to see what it looks like. Well done
