[LargeFormat] The Czar's Photographer

[largeformat@f32.net]

Richard,

I've seen them and was blown away by the colours. You wouldn't happen to know 
which filters or set to buy to get the same effect, would you? I'd love to do 
this digitally by scanning B&W LF negs and using each as its coresponding 
colour channel.

Cheers,
Graeme
