This latter one is an exceptional shot!..
Although, I have been clicking and rolling over it with the mouse and
nothing happens.. just kidding ;-)
It might be good in b&w but I think that kind of unique, subdued
coloured light is a big plus.

By the way, how do you make an icc color profile for a film, for
example the fuji superia? This latter is not included in vewscan's
presets and it keeps torturing me... (again and again!).. It seems to
me that working with an accurate film profile is essential. For
example, I tried to scan this one:
http://www.christosgallery.fotopic.net/p31413650.html. When I realised
that vewscan had its film profile included (I think it was a kodak
gold plus) the colours came into place with such clarity and impact,
like a day from a night, comparing with random other profiles that
have been experimenting.
