Shadow losses

Mike,

I love the first image, she is stunning.

I am wondering how you scanned your film into a digital file. Is this a flat-bed scanner? The D-max seems low. The shadows are full of banding artifacts from the scanner. I personally am limited to a flat-bed scanner and get similar results. As an experienced portrait artist, one can make an educated interpretation of missing shadow or highlight information, but it may be more advantageous to find a friend with a top-notch scanner. I call on my photographer friends for scanning help whenever I feel my flat-bed is not up to the task.

Sincerely,
Garth
