Neighborhood: door to sunset.

Door opening to
sunset light.
Worlds lie within very small worlds as well. Perhaps an error lies here: "the exhilleration of crafting illusion with Photoshop in a manner beyond their total lack of knowledge" No, there was no error here... C. |
A good comparison of similar lighting, same time of day,
but the
difference between the look of film (at the top of the page)
and
the look of digital. There is a harder edge to digital as well as
a different color depth.
Super 8mm film scanned at 2400 dpi and scaled 400% to a 3000 pixel width.
The resolvable detail of Super 8mm film is limited by the small 1/4 inch width.
