abandoned paper mill
9

Abandoned paper mill in Georgetown, Ontario. A bit tricky to get inside, but worth an effort.
Pics taken with X-T1 and 23mm, camera jpegs.
Last two at the airport with the 90mm...yes at f/2, handheld...for all those non-believers who still think this lens is overpriced and overrated.

Re: abandoned paper mill

Generally I love mono images but I think these would look better in colour. You have lost the contrast between the graffiti and the bare walls.

Re: abandoned paper mill

I got my 23mm F1.4 for $649 around black friday and it was money WELL Spent.  Its the most expensive lens ive ever owned and it was worth it.

Yea, I would tend to agree in general, but this graffiti wasn't particularity colorful. I have the raws, along b&w jpegs, and I think the mono stuff looks a bit better.

Those last two pictures don't justify the purchase of the 90mm.
