I love the softness in your image, Alena. Reminds me to the David-Hamilton-effect. Is it the lens, a filter (vaseline or part of old nylon pants) or post-processing?
Hello! Thank you!
I didn’t know who is David Hamilton, I googled and still I doubt. It’s an older thing I suppose.
I have a monocle lens. Nylon doesn’t work for me at all, vaseline is better but I feel pity for a filter 🙂 Post-processing maybe is possible. I found out that decreasing dehaze and clarity PS can give a bit similar result but I don’t enjoy it that much too.
You’re right, Alena. David Hamilton created his style during the 1970s: very dreamy and soft images. I own a Pentacon lens for quite similar effects. But, I use it way too seldom. Thus, I finally decided to try to sell it. But, I really like such images. I also prefer to make the image effects while photographing instead of in post-processing. Nevertheless, your’s is very, very good. 👍👍👍
