The Very Latest & Greatest Fun w/Digital M Images

Going for that Leica Look for post 2... 35 Cron, hey, it's riveted on there, so don't knock it. I think barb wire works for framing an image, don't you?

Hardhat area: the rule of 1/3s is highly overrated.

M9/35 Cron ASPH

I agree. I always say, bury them up to the neck... at least!

(Nice first post, btw, welcome to the thread. The second one is good as well. Let's see longs more!!:thumbup

Jason, this is mind-boggling. Great stuff. BTW, did you show your ID when entering the bus?

 

[Photojazz]

Thanks Lloyd, only had my M9 since Monday. Steve (Shtarka1) told me about this forum. I'm a big Nikon user prior...and still am. We'll say I am cutting my teeth on Leica (started X1, then M9) own both. Also prior Panasonic L1 with Leica 14-42 lens, and Leica V-Lux1 luuuuured me in.

Glad he did, Doug. Are you in Boston (my hometown) as well? Not seeing a lot of snow there?

You're among friends on many levels. Lots of us here also shoot (or shot) Nikon... Matt Driscoll, Steve, Jason, myself, and a few more.

Wow, Ashwin, the entire series is absolutely amazing!

Each of the photos has a serenely balanced composition. There's so much depth, they almost have a 3D feel (with no glasses needed). Best of all, they show a great respect for the individuals and their environment.

Very inspiring. These are some of the best images ever posted to this thread.

 

[DavidE]

A terrific series, Mike.

This is my favorite. The off-kilter angle works perfectly here.

 

[DavidE]

You know you're a pro photographer when you can pose a whippet for window light :ROTFL:

Looks like a pro picture to me. Great image, Jason.

I've also enjoyed the snow-saga series. Brrrr!

m8, cv 35

I really like this one, Endre.

Kind of a Henri Cartier Bresson meets Diane Arbus shot.

 

[DavidE]

As simple as it gets

I love it, Dan.

Very inspiring. You're doing terrific work.

 

[DavidE]

See, you even have mastery over the telephotos!!

David, great WA shots again! Love #2

David: +1! I, also, esp. like this second one. :thumbup:

David: You really make those wide angles sing! :thumbup:

Nice framing,contrast,lines & shooting David!

David - Really really great B&W. Do you do this by hand in a raw conversion tool (LR,Aperture,etc) or do you use specific plugins (silver efex, etc)?

Nice, gritty, B&W conversion.

Thanks Lloyd, Charles, Matt, Steve, Steve, and Mike.

Steve, I use LR and Silver Efex.

From Vegas with the 24 lux.

wow, photos fly though here. Lloyd, not in Boston, further south. East TN, Steve and I are only Virtual friends actually. or web/internet based, you pick. From Day one. I don't count evening after getting battery charged after late UPS delivery as day one! That was just a trial run!

Ah yes, there are few of us the same here; Internet friends. Well, East TN, eh. I used to hang out occasionally in Mountain City or Johnson City... I attended Appalachian State for one semester... many years ago. But again, welcome.

I really like this shot. Great lines. Nicely composed too. Would make an interesting B/W as well, I think.

As soon as I get my upload issues resolved, Comcast, GRRR, I'll get more things like BW's done and stuff, lately, my uploads have been crap, I had to take my files to office. I have a new cable modem coming from Amazing, ok, I meant Amazon, they haven't been to "Amazing" this week! But I didn't know the free shipping came via Tel Aviv, or Hong Kong, lol I ordered it last Friday for cripes sake.

Here's three from today, all within a hundred feet of each other, all 50 Lux ASPH.

(Shiver!)

Not at this time of year, it ain't!

I doubt it very much...

Weather stunk today, hanging out near the couch tonight, so I just shot it. amazingly, it uploaded after 2 tries.

Hmmm... I'd say it looks more like a shrinkage hazard than a fire hazard.

Nice shot though.
