I don't think it has been between the two of us. I think mostly Jens has been talking to himself! :o)
I think I misinterpreted one of Jens's posts, and he's gone off into a trajectory of his own. I haven't read through them in any detail, so perhaps I'm still mistinterpreting, but I've just got back from work, and I'm hungry, so I'm not going to pore over them like a lawyer. An enormous amount of my photography is on slide film, where under/over exposure is simply not tolerated. I also shoot a lot of Tri-X, where there is plenty of scope for creative under/over exposure, but this is always (or almost always) done with a view to the print as the end result. -- Cheers, Bob > -----Original Message----- > From: Shel Belinkoff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 20 May 2005 11:37 > To: [email protected] > Subject: RE: Understanding exposure?
