Hi Alex,

 

what do you want to tell us with these snaps?

[d_purdy]

Nice pictures. However you have lost the beautiful glowing quality of the

Rolleiflex lens by making these images so harshly contrasty. IMO. Rollei

lenses are very sharp but to me the value of them is the quality of the tonality.

Wolf, just for sharing of photos, nothing in particular for telling.

 

Dennis, thx for your comment, I think the contrasty may due to my PS tuning using a poor LCD monitor especially on B/W.

Alex, Love the first one, and second is good too. (First really testifies to Rollei lens (which?) resolution.) The last two may be faulted for contrast, but chopping off their feet bothers me most, especially given the headroom on both. Maybe it's teh SWC VF?

 

Keep it up. And get yourself a BIG print of #1!
