michael_levy3 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Last night, towards the end of our photography class, we talked about Ansel Adam's "Moonriose, Hernandez". When I left the class (at about 9:40pm), I saw this scene. Taken with my M10, Summilux 50mm lens, 1/250th second at f1.4. Converted to B&W in Lightroom. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moving On Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 As for the little one, if one looks closely there appears to be a considerable amount of upward sloping rock between the child and the edge and the adult has hands down slightly open ready to intercept..... Neat color in that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arthur_mcculloch2 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Uhooru. Is there any grace or merit in valorising alcohol?. I will take the demurrer on your shot. Billbllackwellphotography you continue to deliver unbelievably crisp and contrasty shots. And a good shot michael_levy. But remember Ansels shot was subject to profound manipulation. Still on hols. Keep safe all. And looking 4ward to more images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen Herbert Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Leica T with Russian knock off lens. Luck of the game with these lenses....this one a winner. A little superstar....and without the usual awful flare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uhooru Posted October 21, 2018 Author Share Posted October 21, 2018 Arthur said "Uhooru. Is there any grace or merit in valorising alcohol?" Well, going by all the poems and songs about the benefits of drink, "valorizing" drink is a cultural past time. However there could be a different interpretation to this photo that maybe you haven't considered, such as a depiction of the beautiful, sad, ugliness of this liquor store and a statement about a certain no-frills, honest banality in such places that I find interesting and a tale of somewhat marginalized people who spend their money on booze, smokes and lottery tickets. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arthur_mcculloch2 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 So, my contributions. Following a 'holiday' in Tasmania - wet, cold, windy, but exhilarating. The first two are fisher folk, trying to snare a catch at St Helens (gateway to the Bay of Fires), badly focussed - eyesight fails in the declining years. The third is an oyster shucker (food for love) on Bruny Island. The fourth is a woman we had dinner with at Cradle Mountain - she told us of rearing an orphan wombat and the pain of separating from it - when she rarely visits, it is in a wildlife refuge, unable to be re-integrated to nature, it still recognises her, grunts in the way wombats do, and cuddles up still. The final is a glass laden photographer, also out in the morning to capture life. All with M6, 75mm voigtlander lens, FP4, Ilfosol, and scanned. Arthur (apiarist1). And Uhooru - point taken - mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uhooru Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 Great looking cast of characters Arthur, and nicely done, focus aside on the first one. Funny, I just watched a video , about thru hiking the Overland Track in Tasmania. Looks beautiful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
