Nice... looks like something for the movie "Troy", on a buffed up Brad Pitt.my other son, posing in his metal creation
Nice color. Interestingly, I opened this in both Safari and Firefox, and there is a definite color difference between the two. On my MacBook, the Safari version is a bit more saturated, and the reds really pop. More subtle color on Firefox.My wife likes chickens (we used to have real chickens). I'm trying out different processing options in Lightroom.

Lloyd, do you have color management set on for one of your browsers but not the other? That might account for the difference.Interestingly, I opened this in both Safari and Firefox, and there is a definite color difference between the two.

I'll have to check it out. I tend to use both browsers at the same time. (Don't know why, just a habit, I guess.) I've never set any color management on them, they're just at the defaults.With Firefox, you can use the Color Management plug-in (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6891) to enable/disable color management or load a monitor-specific color profile. I don't use Safari, so maybe someone else could chime in for that one.
Very nice, David. Wonderful b/w. I keep thinking I should try SEP, and shots like these keep shoving me toward the edge.Three street shots from my LA trip several weeks ago. All processed with Silver Efex Pro, which can now operate from within Lightroom.
I ended up using the Neutral setting (with minor tweaking) for all three. This is essentially what you get if you let SEP run on autopilot. It's a really powerful application.I keep thinking I should try SEP, and shots like these keep shoving me toward the edge.
Very nice first photo post, Ron. Congrats on the new kit, and we're looking forward to much more from you. That 28 Elmarit is a sweet little lens, isn't it?First photo post here - just for fun to celebrate my first chance to get out with new M8 and new 28 Elmarit. I've learned a lot from this forum as a lurker in trying to get started with the M8 and I appreciate everyone's willingness to help here - it's a nice place! I can see that I have a big learning curve ahead of me, but I'm looking forward to it.
All about the shoes...
Thanks Lloyd. Lucky snap. I had the camera in "belly grab" mode at f8 and hyperfocal. I'm not really much on shooting our ballpark extras, but the shoes caught my eye and I had to click. Seems the norm for these type of shots here is to take it to black and white - but the shoes require color.Very nice first photo post, Ron.

BTW, I opened up your post on my laptop as we were just sitting down to have a snack. My wife saw it and said, "Oh, I love that, and it's so wonderfully composed!"
And as for the shoes, I love those, well seen.:salute::salute:
