Hi Everyone: In early Oct, my husband & I took a drive down Rush St.; I
hadn't been there for years. I tended bar on Rush st. for several years at
a place called The Hangge Uppe, and it's still there, though much has
changed on the street. Anyway, I took this pic--a real drive-by, though I
was stopped at a stop sign. The original pic is a mess--at 2500 ISO it's
grainier than an Iowa silo, and it has enough of those pink & blue artifacts
to give a digital archeologist an orgasm. I think those 3 lights in the
background biased the metering causing the original pic to
underexpose--hence the grain/artifact issue when trying to brighten it up.
Since Oct, I've been rendering the heck out of it, and tonight I think I've
finally settled on this rendering. Interestingly though, just now I printed
this pic on some Illford Gold Fiber Silk, 8 1/2 x 11, and it looks A LOT
less grainer than this digital version.
