Hi Debbie,
I shot this picture at high noon. The light was very, very hot. And I was also using a very fast film - NeoPan 1600. Tricky to say the least to get fast film to work in such harsh lighting conditions. The red filter worked wonders here. I only use the #2. There are many different types of red filters and I've found the #2 to bear the best results. I have a style I'd like to keep. You should see the results you get when you shoot clouds. Just amazing and stark.
Thanks,
Stephen

Hi Koen. Thanks for the input on the suggested website. I just opened it and have saved it to my favorites as a study source for future reference. Looks like a very interesting site:)

Debbie, no. In black and white photography, a colour filter darkens areas in the complementary colour, and lightens areas in the same colour as the filter. An interesting table of this you can find at http://www.artzone.gr/filterzone/contrast.htm

Love the lighting! I see you said you used a #2 red filter. Does a red filter always make the skies totally black. I also wonder what kind of lighting is this? Is this during the day? Night? This picture is just COOL!

Hi Przemyslaw,
Yes, I used a red #2 filter for this shot. Used NeoPan 1600 at a very high shutter speed. The light was super hot. I use a red #2 filter on 90% of my B&W photographs. I like "black" skies. Sometimes I'll use a yellow #2 filter but not often. But no other filters... I stick with #2. I get great results. I hope this helps.

The tonal range has been handled beatifully. Reall "strong" shot.

Hi Sai,
I actually made a mistake in regards to what lens I used. Now that you've mentioned the wide angle - I did use a 28mm lens. The objest is about 15 feet tall - and you can only shoot from a very narrow sidewalk... If I did use a 50mm I wouldn't have been able to get the shot. Thank you very much for your comment and reminder regarding a wide angle.
Sincerely,
Stephen

Hey Stephen,
I really like the metal contrasted against black sky..
Did you take any images with a wider lens? It would be an interesting perspective too, i am imagining.
