Cool portrait and excellent choice to use B&W. Happy birthday to your grandson!

Killer Leighton!

Testing 28mm for Huss’ one shot project (not a focal length I shoot often.) Some good photographers, I don’t want to be the letdown! The project is using HP5 so hope no one minds all the B&W tests for a while.

AIS 28mm f/3.5, nice little lens.

Speaking of killers, the first one is a killer. Perfectly composed and the reflection is icing on the cake!

Great series Matt!

Are you developing your own or using somewhere local?

I'll pop some fall color to contrast the outstanding black and white.

What’s the one shot project? Did I miss a post?

Thanks, agree I like that composition and it might be similar to what I use. Though you have to get real close to the waves and on wet sand I have an appreciation for a flip out screen that won’t be an option for the 1 shot project! The lower the angle the stronger the lines and reflection get.

This one was just the A7SII. I’d like to try developing some day, but I’ve never gotten around too it and don’t have a ton of extra space for it right now (we want to build a bigger house but not in this market.) I used to use a local lab in Wilmington but I don’t know if he’s around anymore or not. Walgreens destroyed enough B&W that I just don’t shoot it much now.

Also, I absolutely love the simplicity and the rendering of that pumpkin shot. Well seen.

Regine, your across the lake color shot is wonderful. The red building, green willow, and colorful sculls frame the tree nicely.

Echoing the kudos' on your b&w of Garrett, Leighton.

rolubich, love that art exhibit shot of the suspended panels. Neat concept well captured. That old lady sequence is masterful story telling as well.

More fall color. It's pretty much all yellow around here so whenever I see colorful that is not yellow, I try to make something work.

Ray, I like the use of the 180 in the first shot. The isolation from the foreground and background works well in that shot.

It looks to me like you will do just fine with Huss's 28mm, Matthew! Please feel free to keep the B&W results coming. Huss's project sounds a lot like our Nikki and Nikko adventures, and makes me wish we could do that again. The problem, of course, is that I don't feel sufficiently inspired to be willing to actually coordinate such a project. Oh well.

I love the interaction between the orange pumpkin and the colourful background in this image, George.

For a change of pace, here are three photos from my IR-converted D7200 and the 20 f/2.8 Ai-s at Forbidden Plateau. I rarely find it possible to extract false colour from the 720nM filter, but I think it worked well for the third image in this group.

Reagan, thank you for the memories. It is said one is never really gone until the last person ever says their name for the last time, so I guess Ray is still with us in spirit for some time to come!

Really. Really liked Ray - he was very generous.

Very much enjoying your photos and the new lens adventures, Colin took to the 135mm 2.0 quick, and he is right in that it is easy to correct most of the wide open aberrations around highlights.

Still not taking photos myself, but by no way abandoning this hobby, just too busy with work, house painting and driveway repairs. I hire help but remain the foreman for the job.

Bought a 55" Samsung Frame at the insistence of a family member, thought it was faddish -= but I actually like it a lot. Finally get to see my photos somewhere other than a computer display.

Here is what the 'Frame' looks like showing my art.....and Andy's art too!

Thanks. I’d love to volunteer but being honest with myself I don’t have time right now myself. I’d volunteer a lens but don’t have any significantly interesting ones either. But count be in if a round 3 ever takes off! (maybe we need to do a 1 shot with a Nikon film body & manual lens.)

Agree, the water looks great and the deep blue in the 3rd caught my eye.

Glad to hear you like it, I’ve always been interested in these since Meural came out a few years ago. One day…
