Karim Ghantous Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 1. No - boring 2. Yes - but you should have tried getting a bit lower to get rid of the distracting background 3. No - but it still makes a point and you cropped in tightly (that's good) 4. Maybe - at least you tried No need to be paranoid about copyright - a discrete line of text running at the bottom edge of the frame should be enough.

dougmiles Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Ok, so you didn't shoot these with the Voigtlander Ultron 28mm f/1.9, but you didn't yet tell us what 28mm lens you DID use... ? Voigtlander Skopar 28? Soviet Orion 28? Minolta Rokkor 28? Summicron 28? Elmarit 28? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SolaresLarrave Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Jati, you wrote: <i>upgraded from my v/c 28 1.9.</i> <p> Your wording here is kind of confusing. If you <b>upgraded from</b> the CV Ultron, what do you have now? To echo Doug's question, is it a Leica, a Minolta...?<p>Inquiring minds... Thanks!!

scott_mcloughlin Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 I don't know. Presuming these pics are selected from the first couple of rolls taken with a new lens, I find these are pretty darn good shots. Some moving subjects as well, etc. Hmmm. And it looks like my home town, if I'm not mistaken. Curious. The CV 1.9/28 seems much beloved among its users. Anything specific that inspired your upgrade?

patricks Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Jati, I for one am always glad when you post here - think you are one of the better urban shooters around. these images however are a bit less edgy/gritty than what i've seen from you before, but then again, the small size makes it hard to really judge. looking fwd to see more! cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew_lee2 Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 I like the second and fourth pix. I think the printing can be a lot better on the second shot however---it's a bit murky and it lacks pop. The fourth one could also use more midtone, at least to my eye. <p> Always liked your contributions---keep 'em comin.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furcafe Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 I agree w/Drew--not every shot works, but you're not afraid to move in close & fill the frame. On the technical side, I would say that to my eye, @ least, all of the pix you've posted look too low in contrast (a little levels &/or curves adjustment in Photoshop would do the trick). Were these scanned on a flatbed from prints, by any chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
