Thank you, Steve. Great stuff. I love that first one. My wife really liked as well. (I'd probably feel the same about the second as well, but it doesn't show up for me.)

The same four in B/W. (This comes of boredom, but I ended up liking the outcome.) Maybe I should call these "Color-less"?

Nice work Lloyd. In this particular series, I prefer the color set. Those colors add great character to the images.

Thanks Mike. I always appreciate your comments.

I prefer the color as well, but that was the whole purpose of the project, so I'd better prefer it?! The b/w just came about out of some downtime and boredom.

A few from a short walk this afternoon - with a couple signs of spring on the way (50 preAsph, Summarex, Summarex).

Great stuff. That last one is a show stopper. I'm very much enamored of that Summarex, and here is a prime example of why.:salute:

Re: More and more fun with M8 images

Not sure which I prefer. M8.2 with Summarit-M 35mm f/2.5 at f/2.5. Comments welcome.

Beautiful images both, Simon. For my part, I prefer the first, as it is more of a moment of reality captured.

The second, looks more like a drawing... it certainly has a wonderful quality, and is very special in its own right. No fault of the image, just a matter of taste between the two.

Re: More and more fun with M8 images

Thanks Lloyd. I think I prefer the first one too, but the second was an attempt to convey a sense of warmth and a dreamlike state.

The intent was certainly accomplished. :thumbup:

Apologies - this was taken using the Summarit-M 75mm f/2.5, not the 35mm.

Simon - what a wonderful shot!

I prefer the first as photograph. The 2nd would make a nice hall-mark card.

Re: More and more fun with M8 images

Out for a long time, and back with some pictures. I opt out of the upgrade for now. Very please with the M8 as it is.

Slide show format:
Anthony Mohamed & Jafar Barron at Skylight 307 Opening Night

111th Annual Adult Student Members Exhibition

Old City Cheese Shop - 14 March 2009

Maybe in about 3 or 4 years I'll pick up an M8.2.

A few shots taken during a stroll in Istanbul with a newly-acquired (and deeply appreciated) Elmarit 24mm.

TY Lloyd, yes the Summarex is wonderful but which M lens isn't!!!

Simon - Lovely capture!

Daniel - Skylight 307 Opening Night - nice series gives a good sense of the atmosphere.

Osman,

That lens has a wonderful look to it, I think it's particularly evident in the last two images. Punchy, saturated, contrasty. I can see why you appreciate it so much. Nice post, thanks.

Re: More and more fun with M8 images

Damned Daniel, I really enjoyed your shots!

I get weary of relentless and heartless technical perfection, and long for stuff that's atmospheric like this.

Both are great; the first is classic, the second is a dream

Lloyd, thank you for the encouragement. It has been only six months since I bought my M8, and now I realize that it's a totally different world. But I have to stop buying those wonderful lenses, otherwise I'm broke
Kind regards.
