Using Dxo For That "old -fashioned" Look

I shoot LF as well as digital but I scan the film instead of messing around in a darkroom (which I don't have either the room for or the inclination to go back to that way of doing things)

I use DxO PhotoLab for digital work and wanted to see if it was a viable alternative to forking out a monthly subscription to Adobe.

Well, no surprise that it struggled to load a 1.8GB TIFF file created from a scan via Photoshop CS3; so I created a smaller file and brought that into DxO with the idea of emulating an older/alternative process look for the image.

Here are the results of three portraits I took on my Ebony, sometime last year.

These portraits are lovely Joanna, you've managed to capture the personality of the sitters really well and the processing is excellent
