rete.com :: beyond photography

Last night I was in Venice with my trusty DP1 and a cheap flexible pocket tripod. I took some ISO 800 shots at shutter speeds from 8 to 10 seconds and the results were amazing. Here are some samples of processing of an ISO 800 RAW file with Sigma Photo Pro 3.2 for Mac.

Original X3F file

Sigma Photo Pro Auto preset

Exposure Value (EV) -2

Please notice how the wide dynamic range of the Foveon sensor can handle the highlight from the wall light on the right of the image.

After some new inspiration, new hosting, new platform, new design and lots experimentation and testing I’m proud to announce to the world that rete.com is back again!
It has a blog structure but it will be based mostly on pictures. After 12 years the motto is beyond photography, meaning that any new technology in photography will be tried and presented on these posts. The website is in english as always to reach those old and new friends from allover the world. Any comment, greeting or question will be much appreciated. Come back often and remember you can add rete.com RSS feed to your web browser to be informed about any new update.
