Ajay - Thanks for the 35 1.4 shot. It is a beautiful shot. However, I must admit I am not so sure whether I like the rendition oft this lens or not. Something about the bokeh, I need to sleep on it.
Bob - Just fantastic shots. Time to go back to Barcelona !!
Philber - Great composition. I love the texture and the tonality. You really know how to use 85.
prosep - I just love that blue sky and white cloud. If not Barcelona, that is where i want to be.
Loved this old beater too, but there's no way to get a clean BG in any direction where it's parked. I guess this was the only angle worth trying and I went heavier than I'd like with the post to try and hide some of the stuff around it.
This thread has been very inspiring. I have followed it for a long time, finally took delivery of the ZE 35mm f1.4 yesterday and thought I would put one in there.
Steve, how mean of you to post a lurvely picture like this. My 35 f:1.4 has been on order for a year now, and all I can show for it is a 20mn tryout....
Thank you, very gracious of you Phillipe, your skill and the contributions of many on this thread has totally changed my perception and direction and opened my mind to new visions. Thank you again.
Steve
Another amazing on this photograph! Great subject, almost unimaginable point of view, wonderful B&W treatment! Are you selling prints? Convinced me after deliberating for a couple years, I ordered this lens this morning.
Oh wow ...and an Aussie.
Yes I did OneAnt, but I placed an order and put a $1250 deposit down about 3 months ago and the price was a lot less than. Your image is sensational by the way, congrats.
