The photo published here today is the only decent photo from the roll of Kodak Gold I shot recently that still looks good in colour. All the others had colour casts and I had to convert them to black and white. This one managed to avoid the weird colours. The colour here is quite subtle but I think it still adds something to the image.
Fujica GW690 & Kodak Gold . Lab developed. Home scanned and and converted using Negative Lab Pro.

I like the colours. It’s after you’ve mentioned it that it occurred to me that I could salvage my badly colour corrected scans as black and white.

Thanks Khürt. That’s what I found. I’d have preferred to keep them as colour, but it’s been beyond my current attempts to make them look right, so the B&W conversion was a good alternative. Some of the shots just didn’t work in monochrome though.

Hello! Love the subtle colour – reminds me of the work of Richard Misrach. I find in my case I tend to either like full on colour (Ektar like) or very subtle, I’m not sure if it depends on the subject or my mood that day!! Cheers Andy

Thanks. And thanks for mentioning Richard Misrach – another photographer’s work I can seek out.
I tried converting this shot to black and white, but I think it needs that hint of colour to really work well.
