@tombzz I am so greatful for your comments Tom, they mean so much since I know that it takes time to see and describe your thoughts about someones photos, and especially portraits or self-portraits. Thank you very much 🖤🖤🖤
And, this is why I love pentax. There are so many options to choose from to get what I am after, different built in b&w coloured + IR- filters that really change what you see or not, many whitebalance options and also a high contrast one, all for b&w shots plus multiexposures.

@tombzz The grain is done with quite high ISO, the built in b&w IR-filter, the high contrast filter and whitebalance on cold, just between blue and green (G3 - B2).

@ambivalena It's fascinating what you wrote about the Pentax. It's clear that you know your gear inside out and can squeeze the soul out of it, not just the technical specs. That combination of high ISO, the IR filter, and that cool white balance created an incredible, almost dreamlike effect. I'm glad I could spend more time with this photo because it truly deserves it.
