The Very Latest & Greatest Fun w/Digital M Images

[Lloyd]

In an effort to answer my own question in the just-posted thread re alternate telephoto lenses, I took this recent 135 mm Apo Telyt image and cropped it to less than one sixth of the original.(One third of width, one half of height.) This would be equivalent of about 400 mm if it were full frame. Of course I'll have to print it to see how large it can actually go.

Misha, f11 to keep the nose and ears within dof. ISO 320.

Interesting experiment, and wonderful result. I would be interested in how the a large print works out.

Winter commute! Not mine, fortunately.

Still getting used to the rangefinder. This is a crop from an attempt at urban composition with the 24 Elmarit. In the end, the only thing interesting was the object that first attracted my attention.

How do I get away from that? I don't see pictures. I see things. I would like to see pictures.

I know, practice! :deadhorse:

Here's the uncropped color version. I tried to do something with the line of posts across the street and the snow covered boxes.

Don't you just hate it when your equipment performs flawlessly? It leaves nothing else to blame...

Well if it helps, I prefer the uncropped version - that probably doesn't help :D

Last Thursday's post in my Daily Photo Blog. M9 + CV 15mm.

That's an amazing shot, Woody.

Love the composition and selective color, Dan.

I agree & love the shot & comp!

Fun and very interesting to have these three posted so close to the same time. Each an image that suggests a story, and which leaves me wanting to know more. Nice work all. :salute:

Stupendous!

Ahhh, just realised the sign was from David......

Love the contrast, sharpness, and perspective

David: Great viewpoint with that lens! Beautiful photos. Your photos of Vegas are transcendent. I think your familiarity gets you beyond the strip and the crap that most see (at least what I see). Thank you. :thumbup::salute:
David: "Chinese Food" - a very cool "street" shot. :thumbup:

Thanks Lloyd, Steve, Dan, Steve, and Matt.

I wasn’t sure I could get any decent pictures from Vegas (since I travel there so often), so it’s good to know that these turned out well.

I've shot these City Center stairs a bunch of times over the past year, but this is the strangest one of all. Looks like a screenshot from The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.

Used the 16mm setting on the WATE.

Mike and Steve,

Thank you. I'll keep at it!

Matt (too many Matts around here.. confusing..)

That's what I thought before I read your comment! Brilliant shot and processing!

Matt: Both work for me. Two different intentions. That's the beauty of the M9...if, you crop. Of course, I don't. :ROTFL:

Daniel: Brilliant, as always! I'm partial to the train tracks. The second's probably a little cliched in concept; but, very good, nonetheless. Great detail, color and compositions. :thumbup:

Cheers, Matt

HI There Charles - and everyone else
I seem to be back on line -for a while at least!

Some shots from this afternoon, with horses in Innisplains!
All with the 75 Lux and the M9

Love all of them, but these three are my favorite.

Daniel - the train tracks really are the business.

Bill - the Misha shot is wonderful - cropping is something one always needs to keep in mind, with these splendid lenses and no AA filter it's remarkable how far one can go.

Matt - I tihnk I like the cropped bike best - but both work for me - remarkable that the bike is so snowed up - but nothing else is.

David - I like the stairs - great contrast and 'snap' isn't the WATE a beauty on the M9

Woody - your third avenue shot is great - one of my favorites of yours, real class - you need a big staircase so's you can do a huge print of it.
