More amazement, Steve. Love that last one especially. :thumbup:Street Cont....
Thug!
d700, zf 35 2.0
BTW, I really like your b/w conversions. Are you willing to share your technique? Also, I've been impressed by what I've seen taken with that lens, including these shots. What's your overall impression?

Lloyd, the zf 35 & leica r80 lux are my 2 favorite street lenses. The iq is just super crisp & unique!
The conversion usually goes like this, cs3 to silver efex pro. Either use "neutral" or "high structure" & then juice up the contrast & structure slide by 20%. I then go back to cs3 & the "selective color" panel & tweek the black, white & neutral settings maybe 5-10%, then if necessary a slight levels adjustment & thats it.
Try to keep this between just the 2 of us please!

Nice setup, cool result, Lloyd...A little different "Street" shot:
D300, 12-24/f4:
Wonder though whether you froze your er, belly off in the melted ice on this one, or used an angle VF... or guesssed.
Wicked, dawg!

Thanks Corlan. I tried a few different tactics, and did get a little wet and cold. Finally, I just put the camera on the curb and shot a number of times. This was the best of the bunch.This one's :thumbs:

Great stuff! I was just going to ask you about your PP; and then i read a little further down (thanks Lloyd). I've been trying to get results as good as yours.Lloyd, the zf 35 & leica r80 lux are my 2 favorite street lenses. The iq is just super crisp & unique!

Thanks Matt....Thats quite a compliment coming from you!!!
One other thing i favor that i forgot to mention on the PP is i do like the "Darken Corners, Lighten Center " function in Color Efex Pro. Adds that vignetting touch rather nicely at times.
Yeah, we've got a snow storm, with high winds that has been lingering & wont leave! Looks like another dreadfully slow day at work today...
. Have a Great Sunday guy's...!

Like ringing a bell, my friend. So sharp, you can cut a finger just touching the screen. And don't get me started about the bokeh! Excuse me!!D700, R 80 Lux
