Tulips - Portra 400 - Leica Elmar 35-70

Still looks good, I like the way that the paths lead your eye away. I have always wondered if it gets cold in Instanbul in winter, looks a bit wintery here.

Tony , weather is close to freezing point. Only a week goes with snow per year. This picture was from September , I guess. Istanbul passes winter warm , no snow storm etc.

Portra is two times more expensive than Kodak 200 , Fuji 100. I think I never used that quality film and something goes strange and compressing effects it a lot. Digital kills the film really and there is no alternative to minilab for me and it scans even for printing. I really miss , analog Kodak labs . And LCD monitor is erasing micro details also.

Thank you for your comment.

I like how it looks so colorful, even on a rainy day. I think that is what makes this shot so nice, the dark greens of the grass and stems, and the bright reds and yellows of the flowers.

Thank you , Too old to care. I am happy you like the picture.
