I like the BW's a lot (with the exeption of the last one.) good job.

Charles, I also went this Sunday. :-) Some of Laura's prints were magnificent and some quite remedial.

Shot from last Sunday. If you went with a family it might be you ;-) :

Here is another link to one of Bendiksen's essays I enjoyed very much:

I photograph things whenever I have a feeling that I will capture something interesting.

 

Currently I browse more of Rossler, Sudek, Koudelka, Kolar. All Czechs. Weird. I'm not the type to tote blood lines. (I'm Czech born).

 

I'm re-discovering color and considering checking out Jonas Bendikssen's new book. Satellites.

I think the only genre I do not enjoy is fashion photography (Although I think some Helmut Newman's stuff is cool) and pure architectual photography. At this stage I find it just boring. I might change with age.

 

There is one style of photography I enjoy but haven't done yet. I love Sudek's still life shots. I would love to focus my attention sometimes in the future to attempt something of my own in this arena.

cool stuff Monkey. Makes you want to run through the opening but I would probably trip over those leggs. ;-)

I think his head size and shape varies depending on how close to the edge of the frame he gets.

I think the curtain adds a lot to the shot.

I know one thing for sure: Al didn't shoot it.

hmm. silly me. I have sinned. I apologize.

hmm. in retrospect I think it was rater selfish to say 'away from this continent' when this forum is international. So - my correction - away from the North American continent.

This Czech magazine has some good photography in every issue and it is far from this continent. I like to look at mags from far away.

One more. Both taken with my cellphone

The lever cocked the mechanical shuttern RD1 - I think. That results in battery saving. I'm all for that. I see no problem with that but it's a moot point if the camera wastes battery on other operations.

Stuart, you lucky bastard.

 

Great shots.

Michael - great shot btw - nice use of the 15mm focal length

Bingo. The late stuff from you has been excellent.

yes I did :-)

was that a poke ? ;-)

 

I read the first few paragraphs and then gave up. What a waste of time.

 

I'd much rather waste it commenting here.

she looks swell robbie. #6 is probably just personal taste but the smile seems too much of 'say cheese' ;-)

a breath of fresh air ;-)
