You come across all sorts of people in a busy metropolis....
The shutter dropped to 1/60th and critical focus was not quite there given the lens was probably wide open. Not as sharp as I would have liked but these scenarios arrive and disappear very quickly.

I had to underexpose by 3 stops to capture the LED screens.
When I recovered the shadows the image was very noisy so black and white helps to mask it.

Hope everyone is fine. I've been doing some remodeling and just had to get it finished. But when I saw the sunset last evening I thought I should share it. We haven't had a nice sunset in weeks, maybe months. The only weather we've had is 2 snowstorms. 50-135mm.
Serge, did she have to limit the tapping to the plate directly beneath her feet to not damage tile?

Close to full recovery, and Barb surprised me with another work of culinary art. A Spinach, three cheese, and pine nut pastry. It was sublime. How did I get so lucky?

I have been lurking and using the like button so I thought it time to make a contribution to the image gallery. I took the 28/2.8 AI-S on a trip to London. The city was packed with tourists and shoppers.
Museo Nazionale Etrusco, Villa Giulia, Rome.
The two pictures show the terracotta pediment of Temple "A" in Pyrgi. It portrayed the two most dramatic episodes in the Greek myth "The Seven against Thebes". The high relief dates to the years 470-460 BC.
The first picture shows the colors as they are today. The second one shows the colors as they were 25 centuries ago. Both with Z6 and AI 50/1.4.
I cropped this photo multiple ways but ended up thinking that the guy looking at me, taking the image of the diner looking at his noodles, told more of a story than a tighter crop of the diner alone.
