Seagull 4A, Haiou-31 75mm f/3.5 – 1/60s, f4 – Kodak Portra 160 rated at ISO 100

Yes it’s that pylon again! I think this is its first time in colour though…

I’ve recently started re-digitising some of my older negatives to take advantage of the Negative Lab Pro plug-in for Lightroom that’s now part of my workflow.

The original scan of this image was quite cold, not how I remember that particular evening’s light at all but Negative Lab Pro’s conversion is pretty much spot on!
