To all who commented I want to thank you, I recently switched from large and medium format to digital, and I am re-assessing my notions of sharpness. How sharp does it have to be, etc. So, I am delibertly making an effort to soften some subjects that normally I would have been obsessive about how much apparant sharpness can I pull out of the image. Digita,l still has a different look than film to me in some subjects. I feel like a Jurassic creature put in front of a starship. Thank you for the feedback, it helps. Joe

I feel your pain Joe. I shot MF and LF film for years (and 35mm, as well), and even though I adopted digital early, I still struggle at times with the differences in the workflow. In someways it feels upside down... I used to choose film based on what 'look' I wanted. Sure, developing mattered, as well as darkroom magic, but it started with the film. Now, with digital, it's sort of the other way around. The files from a given camera have the same "look" (lens differences aside, as that was the same for film), and now the variations are all made post capture. Strange and wonderful world.

A few from the streets :):


"A Man and His Dog ... and a Sausage"


D 700, 50 mm/1.8D @ f/3.2




"Psst, the Sheikhs are in Town!"


D 700, 24 mm/1.4G @ f/3.2

Unfortunately some artefacts due to resizing I can't get rid of:confused:


"Great Emotions"


D 700, 35 mm/2.0D @ f/4


Hope you like it and thanks for your interest.
Great shots Hermann. Well seen and captured.

Time for breakfast, isn't it?
D300 with 80-200 AF-S @ 80mm, f/8, 0.6s and a tripod
Jorgen: My kind of photo! Lovely angle, color, and complexity. :thumbup:

Some terrific images there Matt. Hard to single one out. Great b/w too.
Stunning Work!
Matt: +3! Excellent images. :thumbup:

Color Version...

D700, R80 Lux
Steve: Great in color. The mannequin, the guy and the flowers, and the print make a teriffic composition. The look on his face raises an unanswered "question". :thumbup:

Hermann: Great street shooting. I esp. like the first one. Nice angle in the second and juxtaposition betweeen the people and the billboards in the last. :thumbup::thumbs:

Cheers, Matt.
