Beneath a parasol (twice)

A couple of near identical photos today, both of the underside of the parasol that sheltered my sun lounger from the sun during our holiday in Dubrovnik.

The first was with the Canon Sure Shot Z135 on Kodak Gold. The Z135 has a noticeable vignette, particularly at the wide end, which is readily apparent here, and the sky is a rich and saturated blue.

The second was taken with my Ricoh GR III and is a lot more subtle in it’s tonality. The Ricoh’s excellent lens and the 24Mp digital sensor have also resolved more finer detail. The digital image also stands up to more post processing than the film scan and I think, in this case, that it’s the better picture.
