Boat Shed - Newtown

Beautiful restrained color palette and a lovely image to boot. Very nice

Thanks. I have never had much luck with colour negative in the past. More likely my failing than the film's.
I do like the pastel/watercolour feel to these.
The light was very nice on this day. Although it didn't feel that cold, there was still some ice on the ground in the early afternoon (as I found out when I went round the corner of a country lane sideways on the way there!).

Excellent color. often you see a black white photographer shooting color photos that are a response to color. what i mean is that their colors are bright and vivid. they look as though some one squeezed a tube of paint onto their picture, and the compositions are crap. the next time you shoot color try over exposing 1 or 2 stops, many who shoot color insist that 4 stops is the key (they insist it gives you a believable black). in addition the more you expose color film the tighter the grain appears.

Good work! Best of luck with your future color work.

Thanks for your comments. I did overexpose a little bit. Although it was ISO 200 film, I had my meter set for 160.
