Create/shoot/make/modify/invent images? None, or all of the above? :-) ps: Suggestion; just get some proper CGI computer h/w + s/w and you can do almost anything, comfortably sitting in your chair ...

Thanks for that! Now we can see real details; people crossing the streets, all the cars, details behind the windows, etc. :-) When scrolling along I've noticed the following: -as far as I can see ...

I've got mine with a M42 mount. So I bought a mechanical M42/F-mount adapter from eBay. Just a few EUROs. You can also get these M42/F-mount adapters with an extra optical element in order to focus ...

Nope, not without a M42/F-mount adapter with a small extra lens in it. But I didn't need any infinity focusing; so, in this case, not applicable. :-) And I think the Helios performs quite well at ...

Thanks! The glass might be rich, the photographer isn't... ;-) More of this 'richness' can be found here: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4171320

First of all; good 1st pano. Never too late to start. ;-) Second; the whole idea imho of a pano is (amongst other things) high(er) resolution. That usually gives the viewer the chance of exploring ...

Indeed, but not always the right direction when wanting to show those peculiar ornaments in specific angles or get the sun sparkles on it... ;-) Thanks! Pfff, and it was so hot, that day... I had ...

If I would send the other visitors away, maybe... ;-) But carrying around a large screen/cardboard would be impractical and I would get into a (nasty) debate with the organization and visitors. The ...

? Sorry, I don't get it. I can't change these backgrounds during such a busy event. Otherwise I would have to cut out all the subjects and replace the background scenery during pp. BTW: but what is ...

...or at least they used to go forward. ;-) Some ornaments of vintage cars @ the national oldtimer day. All images are shot with a full manual Helios-44m-4 58mm f/2 lens. Lots more of this location: ...

... a Helios-44m-4 on a D800E. :-) Each year there is an oldtimer day in our town. The biggest collection of oldtimers in the Benelux. http://www.oldtimerdaglelystad.nl/editie-2017 This time I ...

Que? Why should you not use a 24-70mm lens as a landscape lens? It's great and versatile. And the quality of the (older and newer model) Nikon 24-70 (I used the old model for several years) as well ...

W T F ?!? Are you still allowed to breath the local air without any extra taxes? Do you have to pay extra pedestrian fees for walking in/at Laguna Beach? ;-) What will they think of next? ps: don't ...

Always great to see that other photographers take the trouble to create really WIDE panos! :-) As far as stitching and alignment issues; I've personally get the best results with PTGui. (free trial ...

This is how it looks irl: 135mm AI-s MF lens on a D800E Surface reflections of a fresh manufactured & polished ship's propeller against the blue sky. part of this album: ...

Just hike & find them ;-) Albergo Sportivo Valmartello al Paradiso del Cevedale More here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/chasa-imago/albums/72157646823986601 Old WorldWar I relic. Stable building ...

Maybe it's just me. But WHY must we fit in a box? Why do we have to be the one or the other? I make photographs, most of time of the landscape type, because I like doing that. I make photographs of ...

Thanks. Soft is correct; I had to soften the 'shiny' characteristics of this image... Do you have any idea what you are looking at?

OMG. Never thought of that. ;-) But no, it's has nothing to do with any kind of person, alive or fictional.

Converted to B&W . Shot with an old MF AI-s lens (Nikkor 135mm f/2.8) and a modern DSLR (D800E) Do you see it? :-)
