On the High Line

[Woody Campbell]

Rather than continuing to hijack the "why did I choose . . . ." thread I thought that i would start one on the High Line outing with Lance and company. All images with an SK 35 xl on an Alpa TC plus 60 meg H back. I use my Leica D5 Disto for measuring distances - the Alpa hi rez focusing ring facilitates getting the settings on the camera. Exposure is sunny 16 rule plus trial and error.

Even more of the same.

That's it for now.

Nice Woody. All handheld, correct?

Correct

Woody - I was interested to know whether you are using the CF filter when shooting handheld with the 35 XL?

Great images btw! I especially like the chain fence and bridge railing receding view images. Very nicely done.

Woody,
Very nice! Have you converted any to B&W? Some look as if they would really sing.

Graham - I don't use a CF filter with the 35. You really need the two stops if you are hand holding. I find that I often prefer the look of the non-falloff corrected image is preferable as it tends to darken skies. I don't use the 35xl shifted. I've noted elsewhere that the good part of its image circle barely covers a 40x54 sensor.
