About To make a long story (somewhat) short: I took doubles of my hayrake shots with a relative's digital camera and promptly forgot about it. A visit to said relative this past weekend saw me dizzy with delight when I realized my ruined (overexposed) manual shots were alive and well on digital. I find it interesting the digital capture is more blue, whereas the print film is more yellow. Is there any reason for that?

Well, I can't answer your question about why digital seems more blue... could maybe be your lab printing images with more of a yellow tone? Not sure how you would figure it out.

But the BLUE SKY on this one really stands out! And such a sharp image as well. Just wish for a tad more room on the left to get the whole hay rake (thanks Russ!) in.

I love this series! A blue color cast can occur in a digital photo if the camera's white balance is set for the wrong kind of lighting. Photos taken with the Auto setting in low light tend to be on the blue side. Many digital cameras also automatically oversaturate colors. Just because a camera is digital doesn't mean that you can just point and shoot. There are a lot of sophisticated controls hidden in the menus of digital cameras, even the lower megapixel ones. That's what makes them so much fun to use. You have to apply a lot of the same basic photo knowledge to digital that you do to film photography.

Thanks for your comments. :)

Betsy, you've inspired me to be more adventurous with a digital camera. I've been lazy because I don't have one of my own, and the one I use I only have access to once or twice a year. I've always been happy with the results of auto settings, but perhaps I can do better with more control.

Great abstract shapes, almost menacing. The blue makes for a great contrast and the framespace is very efficiently used.

Good prosective and rich colors, Nioe work.
