@39exp Tungsten is 3200K, you're probably thinking of tungsten-balanced film that looks colder in daylight.

@Gargron yes, 3200k is on a warmer side of the scale. Honestly I don’t know much yet about photo lighting equipment :)

@Gargron Good shot. Your wife's expression, the light and the setting make it timeless.

@Gargron I love the composition and it's fun to see how the closer light source is rendered even warmer. Was the warmer than the tungsten light?

@Gargron How did you get the sepia tone? In fact, I’d be generally interested in your film-to-web workflow.

@timbray No special post-processing except adjusting the black point. I illuminated the scene with a 650W incandescent light, which has a natural color temperature of 3200K.

@Gargron Nice look. I'm a natural-light fanatic, which I like, but it does mean I don't get to have lighting-geek fun.

@Gargron That's a great photo. I love how the color is "the same but different" all around giving it a "it's a color photo, but it's not" vibe.

Keep it up.
