john_lovelace Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 <p>Anybody who gets that kind of recognition from shooting an M6 can't be all bad. In a few days I'm taking my M6 on a special assignment in a chapel with available light, most of it filtered through heavy stained glass. I won't win any international prizes but I'll come back with some dazzling color (Fuji Provia 400) that should need little if any post-shoot tinkering. Really like your shoot.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colin_elliott Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 <p>Nice shot Alex and congratulations.</p> <p>I got to thinking the kind of activity shown in the picture would garner one a $327 fine here in Canada.<br> $109 for riding other than on the road. $109 for riding with more than one person on a bike<br> $109(perhaps $218?) for riding without a helmet<br> "But officer, it's a prize winning photograph!"</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmz17 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 <p>Colin, you forgot (for Denmark): no white reflector on the front, no reflectors on the wheels. And the parents should be reprimanded for letting their kid(s) ride without helmets.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex_Es Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 <p>Golly, golly, golly. Thanks so very much for all the really beautiful words!!! It is truly encouraging and uplifting and just simply wonderful!! Thank you one and all!</p> <p>Those naughty girls are quite typical. It's illegal in Japan but I've yet to see the police stop anyone for riding like this. I have also yet to see any bikes break from this sort of abuse.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squareformat Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 <p>Nice shot, Alex! Quite ugly bokeh at the top of the escalator, though! Might have looked better taken with a Hexar AF. Discuss... ;-)</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keith_lubow Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 <p>Congrats on winning the award.</p> <p>However, if you want a gold star for using a Leica to do it, I just don't know what to say. A pic is a pic and a camera is a camera.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
