The story: My favourite category beside Street, Nature and Architecture is People or which I find much more adequate: Humans. I love to find those special moments when humans come together and no social media in the world will be able to replace that warmth and love which will make you shiver, cry and laugh. So I met with one of my best friends Daniel and his lovely daughter Emma and we went to have an extensive and lovely breakfast at a famous Frankfurt place for French breakfast, rolls and bread. We ate a lot, discussed, played around and laughed like hell. Just good times! Then we went to go to a cute Zoo outside of Frankfurt which includes a Petting Zoo area. Even though it wasn't a sunny or bright day (not to be expected in February in Germany) it was full of bright big and small humans so there was no sun needed to feel enlightened and warm. See for yourself if you can feel what I mean. Daniel and Emma: true love, so cute and so happy together! Tech info: All photos taken with a Sony Alpha 7, Zeiss FE55 1.8 and Minolta MD 85 1.7. Apertures were mostly wide open 1.7 (MD) and 1.8 (FE). Some have been stopped down to 2.0, 2.2. and 2.8....Show more →
Thanks guys. Really appreciate all comments and especially constructive criticism.
I was using presets in the past and from what I've learned from them I started creating my own. So for now I am using two to three different custome b/w presets, which are quite similar but do work differently depending if night or day, flash or non flash and the lighting conditions overall.
For all photos in colour I also use 2-3 colour custom made presets. Most important I am only using only one b/w preset and one colour preset per series.
