C&C welcome

I have some thoughts about this one but I would like to hear other opinions. Cropped from 4:3 to 3:4. Played a bit with saturation and gamma and such in post. Taken with an Industar-61 55mm 2.8

It's a descent shot, very. I never care for things like the parking lot, but we don't always have a choice. Such as was for the bubble boy I have in mind (later). Might do a little NR on the sky, or add a little grain over all of it.

Somehow I feel like this shot should have been better. It's okay but it lacks something and I don't know what that is. It really had some 'wow' potential but somehow fell short. I don't know if it's the composition or the clashing colors or what. I like it but I don't love it.

Posted this same scene last week, took another crack at it a couple of days ago when I had more time to set up the composition.

I do like this a lot more, in this context. Looks like some red paint too on the b/g stump. Was the area more trashed, or was this the extent of it?

The reds feel rather hot, unless that's what you were going for.

The area was fairly pristine except for a couple of huge hunks of graffiti-filled concrete like this. Definitely a clash of isolated primeval forest and urban blight. I wanted to highlight the contrast between green forest and red grafitti so I overcooked the saturation a bit on purpose.

Oh, it was such a nice two days of mild temperatures. Just tried to get out in it, this being Thursday's time 'in the neighborhood'.

Tried to keep the Ultron 28/f2 on the E-PL2 for a good part of the day.

Bubbles! Interesting choice to go B&W. Love the kid inside the bubble trick, great that you captured that moment.

It was so nice I went out again after dinner.

E-P2 with the Hexanon 135/f3.5 (all E-P2 work on tripod, ISO 200)

A nice abstract.

Bobo Hodls said:
E-P2 with Heliar 15/4.5 - nothing special, just another take on the familiar, or Same Place, Different Day

I like the star pattern you got with this lens/aperture combo. It gives a sense of crispness to the shots.

Bobo Hodls said:
A parting shot w/E-PL2 and Nokton 35/f1.4 for a hand-held ISO 3200. Except for that sky banding. . . (I should take care of that with a pass through Dfine).

I've got to learn me those kinds of tools...
Very nice set Bob.

My PL45 has been seeing more action lately. This week some closeups of an old camera that I know little about, except that it has written on the bottom "No. 2 Fold Cartridge Premo." (Shot info: Black background, bounce flash to left off reflector with FEC around -1 to -2. Processed in LR 3.) I'm not sure I prefer the B&W or the color. C&C welcome! I'm here to learn.

This last one just for fun:

Nice shots. That's a Kodak: http://www.butkus.org/chinon/kodak/kodak_folding_cartridge_premo_2/kodak_folding_cartridge_primo_2.htm It takes 116 or 616 film which is hard to find and expensive, but if you Google around you can find methods of modifying it to take 120 film.

I didn't take any great photos this week with my M4/3 gear (GH2 and GF2), but I had fun with it. This is me using my GF2 to photograph my friend and his new GF2. I took him to Fujiya and he made out like a bandit. Yesterday they had bodies for 23,100!!!

At dinner. Still love the bokeh on the 20. I keep that on my GF2.

GH2 used for work at AOU Amusement Expo in Chiba, Japan this weekend

Aaah Bob, I wish you could have transported that boy in the Crab Coast
shirt to another universe!

But I still love the scene as you captured it.

Cheers,

André

Pic.#1 - looking at his elbow, the rubber band came off of the gator's mouth at some point.

Nice capture!.
