Re: More and more fun with M8 images

I had fun with this one. An Elliot Erwitt moment? ;)

M8, 35 Summicron

i love elliot erwitt. i've seen and admired so many of his pictures since i was a kid, but i never knew who was the photographer until a few years ago. sometimes i wonder if his work drove me to majoring in anthropology.

Cindy: IMO framing like your flower shot, regardless of subject, is what the 75 Lux excels at -- very nice capture!

Dan: I wonder how the image would change if the man were in focus and the background out? I assume he's a waiter and the "dump" in the background is ironic :)

that'd be interesting. i wondered about this also. i've also thought of staging this. i'll have my friend in the background peeking over the dumpster, and wait for someone to walk by and do the same thing as this gentleman did (trying not to get into the the camera's view). i hope the dumpster will still be there.

Maggie,
I love them all, but I really, really love the last one. It is great how you captured the little boy's image in the puddle of water, and so poignant to see the young boy and the aging man side-by-side.:thumbup:

Maggie, I second the motion on the last B&W of the kid with the cowboy hat and the reflection in the puddle. That is a "damn, I wish I'd taken that" shot.

Ain't playing in the dark fun?

Especially when you've got an M8 and a CV 35/2.5!

Bummer, the dumpster was gone when I went back :(

Re: More and more fun with M8 images

It's been raining and gray around here for days. I think my brain is getting a little damp. Here's a couple in the gloom. Not sure of them, but it helps pass the time between clients.
