Fun with the Leica M Monochrom

Really nice shot's Dave! I watched three Pacman fights while living in the phils and they are indeed a huge event there! Most take the day off and make it into an outdoor party. I was also lucky to hang with him on a few occasions as my son was in his son's class at school. Super nice guy and pretty down to earth. My wife was pretty happy to get a few pics with Jinkee as well! :) Keep the good pics coming!

Actually 'twas my first serious attempt to shoot Filipinos watching a Manny Pacquiao boxing match. It is almost like a national holiday whenever there's one. Unfortunately for the Philippines, Pacquiao lost...

I love the look of the MM but I just don't shoot enough black & white. You guys are making me jealous though :)

Funny that the USA seems to be short of stock, they're on the shelves unclaimed here in oz :p

Nice to hear from you Gary, thanks. I'm glad you crossed path with Pacman while you were here. Cheers.

Dave, you have quick become a master with the MM!
Ashwin, you're too kind... Many months before becoming a member here - I had been lurking everyday (literally) and got inspired to the posts here (especially yours), and was enough to push me to get my first RF. Still have lots of things to learn from you guys, thanks GetDPI! Keep inspiring.

This is just lovely. How did you get such nice tonality?
Skimmel, thanks! I process them over at LR and the Monochrom's DNGs have enough lattitude to allow pushing and pulling the sliders more aggresively. I basically tinker with highlights and shadows, blacks and whites, and curves. HTH.
