Joakim, beautiful shot in its simplicity
Hugo, really nice shots!
Martynas, beautiful artistic shot !!!
Carsten, I am still not seeing your shots, but I assume they are very good.


Well, thanks for the assumption I wonder if my (personally run) website falls into your provider's list of dangerous sites? I had a break-n-enter on my previous WordPress blog.

No daylight shooting today so I performed a little stitching exercise, 3 rows with 5 photos in each taken with the 85/f1.4 at 2.0 and close to MFD. Stitched in Photoshop and b&w converted with Silver Efex Pro.

Salut!


Joakim, I was born in Normandy and lived there for twenty years, so your picture warms my heart, beside the obvious fact that it is a beautiful piece of photography . Great picture and great subject.

But you must know that we say "Santé" here when enjoying this kind of alcohol. Salud is in spanish and does not translate to "Salut" in french. "Salut" rather means "Hi"

I'm at a conference in Chicago so the camera comes along for the ride, of course. I tried my first ever panorama. This is with the 35 f/2



Hi Rji2goleez, looking at your photos I often "envy" the perfect sunstars ... I am trying to replicate them with my 21ZE (closing the diaphragm), but they don't come up as beautiful as yours... please can you explain me your "secret"?
Thanks, francesco

Are you using a filter? Maybe that could explain it.

yes, I am using an UV filter ... does it prevent sunstars to appear?

allstarimaging - Nice portrait. I like the B/W one a little more.

carstenw - Beautiful shot. Great color and detail.

Mast3rChi3f- Love both shots. Beautiful terrain capture on the first, Beautiful shot of tree in the myst.

Diploneis- Great composition. Window inside window, the grain, the tone. Love the mood.

Grenache- Love your beautiful shots from Colorado. I agree with you, I think the 35 and 21 want to belong to you, as they know you can get best out of them. From 35, I like the 1 and 2. From 2, its hard, may be 2,3,4,6

teh_rebel - Wonderful shots. I like the composition of the first one with very fine detail and color of hedges in the back. What I like about the second shot is the placement of cable car in comosition. Very dynamic. I see the poor orange road corn got stuck under the cable car. ( Sorry, I have affinity to those )
Shot on the biker is wonderful, taking advantage of unusual vantage point from cable car.

akul .. thanks man. i didnt notice the cone stuck under the cable car till you mentioned it lol. it was definitely fun being in the back of hte cable car going up and down the street, up and down the hill lol. with the 21ZE, makes it easy to focus .. just set it to infinity or close to it and shoot away

I hear you. I love ZF21 for that. I still find composing with 21 challenging as there is so much it covers.

Gary - Sorry the 'danger' sign must have my mouse jump over the image . Great mood and lighting. I like the feel of old film. Very creative.

Here is a shot which I mistakenly first posted in the Kodak SLR thread, but it is the Nikon D3 and ZF100MP:

Some more shots, from a bit earlier this fall, in Hans-Baluschek-Park, Berlin:







The following shot I don't find so good in general, but I like it as a boke study of the 100MP:







ZF35/2, a bit more processing than usual for me:







A 100MP boke study:







Just one of those places where you look through the lens and go "oh yeah":







The end:







Okay, I am kinda caught up with my recent backlog, so I can focus more on getting new shots in the box.

Lots of great photo's here lately.
I myself have not been contributing much lately as I haven't had a chance to get out much since I got the 5D repaired.

Hoping to get out soon and get shooting again.
All the overtime from work thats been keeping me busy may go someway to pay for the ZE35 i'm desperate to try/own.

Keep the awesome photo's comming.

Cheers

After a couple of days of outright nasty weather, I tried to take a shorter photo walk today. I was defeated fairly quickly and retreated after a few shots. These are long exposures so you can't really see it, but this was in the middle of a snow storm:

A couple of shots from my first MF lens, Zeiss 50mm 1.4, that I JUST picked up from a fellow FM member.

This is the Old Orange County Courthouse in SoCal.







Very minimal PP was done in LR 3. Default sharpening can be seen in this 100% crop.







Here I have applied a little bit of sharpening in PS:







These shots were focused @ infinity just using focus confirmation. I look forward to getting out and using this lens with a tripod and live view.

Carsten - First shot, a plant shot, I don't know what it is as my botanical knowledge is non existing, is beautiful. Different color scheme from the second set, which I also like. I enjoy your color rendition very much. #3,4,5 are my favorite.

Denoir - Beautiful night shots. I have no idea how you change your lens in the middle of snow storm. #2 #3 #4 are my favorite. On #3, EXIF says 15second exposure, but I see drip of water caught in mid air on the left. How did you do that ?? Was that from some sort of fill-in flash?? Great composition on #4.

dennist - Congraturation on your 50 1.4. Looking forward to see more shots.

Bob - Beautiful shots of cemetery. I really like the B/W conversions. My favorites are the first two. I really like the composition of three crosses and oof back ground on the first. Your choice of tone and compostion on the second shot is right on. Beautiful.

Thanks akul It's not a water drop but just a blown specular highlight. No flash was used, it was just a plain long exposure.

Thanks Akul. If your botanical knowledge is absent, mine is a negative contribution to science I don't even know if this thing always looks like that, or if it is dead.

One from the Naturkundemuseum a few weeks ago. ZF35/2.
