Very nice series Kevin. I like the 2nd and 4th images in the first group and both in this group. A very productive walk!

Headed back to Conowingo Dam this morning. The first is a shot of the scene there. Most of the birds are at the far bank of the river. Eagles were aplenty today. The setup is the 500 F4P and the TC301 on a gitzo tripod. Took this with the 20 3.5 UD.

The eagle shot is with the 500 + TC301 = 1000mm.

1000mm omg!
Beautiful eagle! It must be crazy hard to keep a flying eagle in the viewfinder

Bridge over the Seine, 85 HC



Where is this bridge in relation to the "Locks of Love" bridge in Paris? My wife and I honeymooned in Europe and we have a pair of locks on the bridge. I would post the photo, but its not a MF lens, even though the shot was taken manually.


I think what you call the "locks of love bridge" is the "Archevêché" bridge in the Latin Quarter (near cathedral Notre Dame). Here is a shot of that bridge with the 28 2.8 ais :




Cool!

Your street shots are an inspiration

Thanks Monty

Thank you! The above shot was taken at f/22 hand held, I am surprised it came out at all, let alone sharp


I welcome all critique and criticism... I am trying very hard to improve and sometimes feel a bit stuck. I do very minimal post work, usually only a high pass filter and some sharpening. My B/W shots are just desaturated from the final color prints. I don't use really any filters or actions, most of those give the images an artificial look to me.

As an aside, if any of you do portraits or family photos, I wish you to shoot me a PM. I have a paying gig coming up, my first, that I would like to bounce some ideas off of you.

Thank you, keep the critiques coming!

Too busy to keep up with the thread the past few days, but Philippe in particular is posting great work, and I'm quickly becoming a big fan of all of Ian's work.

With the 28mm f/2.8 AI-s at f/11, earlier today.

Got the battery all charged up and took about 50 more shots yesterday. The colors were so great, the air so crisp and clean, I ended up enjoying the walk more than taking pictures... If any of you personally knew me, you would know that is something extraordinary for me.

Again, all shots with the Series E 50mm... I love this little lens.


Extraordinary indeed! Nice shots, Kevin
