It sure is inviting! Makes me wish I was there right now...! The polarizer does make it a little dark, but still a great shot!

Well, that *was* a huge jump, especially to slide film which is VERY difficult to use, expecially Kodachrome, which has a tolerance of 1/2 stop.
C-41 film is more forgiving (2-3 full stops) and other slide film around one full stop (hence the highlight problems). As a rule, underexpose the film slightly to keep the highlights.
Ideally, a light meter is required for accurate slide film work, but these are expensive.
Accurate incident readings are *always* more accurate than reflected readings (all cameras do this) and result in better saturation and more controlled highlights and shadows.

Graham,
That is good information to know. Jumping over to the film world from digital has actually been a very exciting and fun process for me. I am pretty good now with the neagative film, but I am finding out that there are a lot of different things I need to learn about when using slide film :)
However I must admit, slide film is wonderful! So much detail and color. I plan on doing a lot more work with slides in the future.
Thanks again for the comment and as always, it is much appreciated :)

Great image - but.... the polarizer..? Hmm, these are tricky gadgets to use properly and work best at 90 degrees to the light source. Otherwise they magnify contrast and saturation and plunge the shadows into oblivion! I suspect this image would have been fine without the polarizer as there are no real scatter highlights to speak of. A great view though - very inviting!

John thanks. It's funny about the polarizer... This is actually off the very first roll of Slide Film I ever shot (no joke!). Everthing before this was done on either my digital, or using color negative film.
Not until AFTER I had the slides processed did I realize: Hmmm...polarizers are nice, but maybe not too much more in the future with slide film!!
Thanks for the comment.

Just beautiful Lars!!! What a nice location! Would love to be on a lounge chair on that beach!
The polarizer worked well with the sky but You lost some detail in the palm trees.
Still a wonderful photo! My best...............John
