If you're working in black and white film photography, one way you can further control value and contrast in your pictures is with colored filters. Today we're heading out into the field to test what five different color filters do to our B&W film photographs. 10 sheets of Ilford Delta 100 are loaded up and ready to try with: yellow, orange, red, green, and blue filters.
Filters Used were all Tiffen 100mm (4x4") square:
Yellow #15
Orange #21
Red #25
Green #11
Blue #47
Thank you to all of our LFF Members as we hit over 50 this week!
