In November I had the honor and privilege to document Master Chen Zheng Lei (陈正雷) during a weekend workshop he did with his niece Chen Huixian and her husband Michael Chritton So after about 1600+ images I finally got it down to 365. I will be posting and image a day from this weekend for the next year.

Kodachrome as Black and White

So I had a roll of Kodachrome that was beyond its date, processing and shooting. What do I do? That is when I got this crazy notion to process as if it were black and white. Which essentially it is, and this is my result. I actually love the tonal range, and even though it has quite a bit of grain, it's not that muddy looking grain, and lends itself well to the images.
