Went on a camping trip to Lake Isabella in Kern County this long weekend... My first chance to take the 50'Lux out, but show mostly with the 35mm instead because I wanted a wider angle. I did get a few pictures that I liked, but they seems to be just plain vacation photos so I won't bore you guys with them. If you would like to see them, I posted some on my site's gallery page: Lake Isabella Camping - LeicaLux

This one, I thought was kinda funny... It looked like some in/out of focus bokeh shot, but it's just shadows of trees on our tent in the morning:


I don't use the 35mm a lot, but I'm pleasantly surprised with some of the results. Here are a few from the "Trail of 100 Giants":

Plus one to all of the above.

Another great set, Charles. Love the colors, but your portraits really shine. :thumbup:

Everyone mentions post processing so I am wondering what kinds of post processing you guys / gals do. A touch here and there, a complete reworking of the image to suit your artistic visions, or nothing at all. Thanks.

If it doesn't move and if there are extremes that are likely to burn out, I shoot 3 wide bracket shots. I blend them in Photomatix, tweak the curve in p'shop and bob's your uncle (M9+50mm Taylor&Hobson Summarit):

Charles! You keep killing it with those nocti shots... the first, third, and fifth are my favourite, they have the most character :)

David, the "shadow bokeh" shot is pretty interesting... I've recently discovered that I have a small fascination with shadows. And the one of that crazy tree stump thingie is so cool!

Matt, I really like the first of the set :) 21's must be fun to play with!

Downstairs, that's a pretty cool composite photo... never been one to appreciate still life (dont know how to) but there's just something I like about this one... maybe the colours... maybe the composition. Though, I don't really know well enough to pinpoint it.

With the digital M files, I find I don't do much. I depends, of course, on the shot, but I generally use Lightroom (now using LR4), and do a little highlight adjustment, bring the blacks up a touch, and a little curves adjustment. Good to go from there.
