I was wondering what you might tell me about reducing contrast when I dont
have the benefit of processing or printing control - I want to use the warm
tone ektachrome slide films in my elan 7 camera. I am going to Lucce,
Tuscany for a week and the light is cold, harsh and contrasty and it's so
easy to lose detail in shadows or blow out highlights. I guess there's no
way around it except to only shoot very early or late or to do photoshop
manipulation after scanning ? I don't expect the film has more than a 5 stop
range, or about 2 stops over and under zoneV ?
thanks

Statements of supposed science, without statistics, are just as much religion,
and ONLY statements of faith as any religion, or statement of faith,
except they profess the supposed scientist is God, even more
dangerous than religion or God. There is no science, without a statement of
statistics, AND any statement without statistics, is a conjecture of faith
by the professor of such statement, and the "believer". An ethical
house cleaning of science and government is in order.

"Does God want goodness? or the choice of goodness?
Is the man who chooses bad, somehow better,
than the man who has the good forced upon him?"
a quote from the movie, A Clockwork Orange, Kubrick

Enlightenment is man's release from his self-incurred tutelage.
Tutelage is man's inability to make use of his understanding
without direction from another. Self-incurred is this tutelage when
its cause lies not in lack of reason but in lack of resolution
and courage to use it without direction from another. Sapere aude!
"Have courage to use your own reason!" - that is the motto
of enlightenment.
Kant -- What Is Enlightenment? 1784

"It all sums up into one single purpose,
the abolition of dog-eat-dog under which we live...
and I traveled the United Front road to get it."
-- Roger Baldwin, Co-Founder ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union)
