Very Nice! I especially like the first picture. Good work, and nothing like Zaino eh?

Great job on the photos. I still like the look of film, digital shots usually need tweaking to look like that.

So why did you do Zaino this time instead of NXT (since we were discussing it on the show and shine forum)?

Which do you think looks better?

Good pictures though, I wish I had taken some evening pics of my Ti after doing NXT today.

Did you add some additional contrast to the pics? They look different now.

nope thats right off the 35mm negative scanned into my pc via a negative scanner.

just used "auto levels" feature in photoshop to get rid of some green casts.

I perfer Zaino to everything, don't trust anything that doesn't require as much work.

Zaino isnt really that much work. It's just the damn price that I don't like. I'd rather spend that money on gas :b

It's good to see a clean Ti RX-8. Mine is dirty almost all the time, and has nicks and chips. I call them battle scars.

Nice work Polak. So how many hours did you spend to get that shine?

I'd love to try the Zaino one day, but the time commitment scares the crap out of me.
