Fun shots all, David, but this one is really great. Love it!!
That shot of the color hallway gives me vertigo! Very Matrix-esque as well.
Other Worldly Color & Comp David! Love It!
Thanks Lloyd, Steve and Matt. Much appreciated!David: De Stijl carpet? That Interior designer's over educated. The "psycho" out-of control escalator's great.
Give it a chance Robert. I believe you will work wonders with it!That balloon pic is awesome!
Ashwin can never run for public office now, unless he moves to the UK
My elmarit 135 showed up, Im not sure if I like it or not yet, is that weird?
Lloyd, I Think Lefty Has A Bone To pick With Ash..:ROTFL: Nice Grab!Terrific stuff everyone. I'll try to comment more specifically later. I've had a busy morning. More on that (and pix) later as well.
In the meantime, I just wanted everyone to know something about Ashwin. Not only was he kind enough to let me shoot most of the day with his 35 Lux ASPH II (and yes, I covet... oh yes, it's true), but he was also very generous to other people as well. For instance, as you can see below, he let my friend, Lefty, try out his M9! How nice is that? I mean really!

Love this Timothy Leary Shot David!Another hallway shot from Vegas.
Ashwin: I did show it to her! Needless to say she was shocked! :bugeyes: Thanks re: photos. Let's get together when you get back....
Matt, you showed that to your wife? hahah....gosh, what'll she think of me! Speaking of which, we are long due for a photo stroll, and you are working MAGIC with that CV35! What compelled you to snag that...Is the Leica 35 long gone? Regardless, the images show wonderful character and terrific processing...

Geno/Steve/Charles/sjg284/David: Thank you, gentlemen!A fine set, Matt. This one in particular is a real standout.
Thanks David!A terrific shot, Steve.
Love how the grain texture seems to blur what is a statue and what is not a statue.

Steve: Beautiful tone and composition! A bronze statue of ?? Probably not growing those tulips for the bulbs? Great color. (insert thumbups here)Ok, Im In...

Lloyd/Ashwin: :clap:Hi Lloyd,
I hope that the busy morning provided just rewards. I know that some stuff was in the works. I spent yesterday in Zion and Bryce...great pics, to be shared soon, once I am home and can download images.
As for sharing, I love to do that, even if guys like Lefty come up and just grab
Geno: Actually, that is cool! :toocool: I'm of the opinion that you need to occasionally do some "weird" pp to help refine your normal process. :lecture: (insert salute here)Anybody ever try Pixelbender? Seems kind of cool for one or two photos a year.
This is done with a very small amount.
Robert: Really nice IQ. Some great photos have ben posted here with that lens. I had one for a while, but never really used it. Different strokes, eh? Cheers, Matt.That balloon pic is awesome!
