Hi Jeroen, I changed to the NPH, mainly because I found the colours of the Fuji NC flat.... Very good for portraits and subtle colours, but the NPH is, at least in my view much more allround. I'm not familiar with Provia, though (a slide film, isn't it?). When I need a really versatile film, I use the Kodak Press 800, can be easily pushed to 3200 without (noticable) loss of detail nor increased grain or pulled to 200. The colours of that sunset were induced by the pollution in Tehran.
Thanks for your comments....
Great shot, the converging lines leading the eye to an explosion of frost (metaphorically, ofcourse) Very strong and dynamic... The freezing air is almost made tangible by the use of colour. Very impressive portfolio you have...
