    Baboon

    I like it although not animal specialist. I love the expression and also the uncommon position of the body. Bravo!

    The animal is superb again but I would definitively crop the face out and delete all the rest.
  3. All theses ladies are exceptionally well shaped, you may well congratulate them. Unfortunately nice sexy bodies do not give nice pictures: nude photography is a very difficult discipline and requires a lot of talent. I never succeeded to make one just acceptable, never.

    Thank you
  5. Dear you two, I thought about the tripod lkater but was confused due to the wrong aperture indicated. Thank you for answering my question, I appreciate. Bonne soirée !
  6. Notre-Dame de Paris : les premiers arbres qui serviront à la reconstruction de la flèche viennent d'être sélectionnés | Connaissance des Arts
  7. Notre-Dame de Paris : la cathédrale retrouvera une flèche identique à l'originale This will make some people happy here if they understand French
  8. If I read wel, you had a 90 mm lens, 1/80 speed !! and 6400 ISO, correct? Aperture 9,9? How can the image be so sharp? Thank you for the shooting details, I miss something

    Soft Symmetry

    Did you think of split toning the image with soft warm tone in the black parts?
  10. Much better than the previous one I commented on BUT: Picture is unscharp Background is disturbing because to prsent, not blurred enough. One more little effort and you will be there

  12. the screen is QHD, 3840 x 2160 pixels. My old Eizo looks perfect to me, but once you see this, you never go back....
  13. 156€ for a black large piece of plastic is an abuse, yes, but it looks very nice and is very efficient. You prefer to paint your whole room? Not me.
  14. the room light/painting, yes! Better pay 156€, and it is all done very fast and very secure:-)
  15. May I invite you torve a look at my portfolio where I just added a photo with those jacks in breakwaters, not far away? I gave it a little brownish tone . Why did I take it? Because of the water, it looks like plenty little leaves, the same as those on the road on the image here above
  16. Just to be clear: the pictures are taken digitally in color, then converted in BW.
  17. I knew Greenspan, now I also know Greenspun! Thank you.
  18. Dear Laura, Coming back to your question "When you saw this scene, what did you think? In this precise case, I perfectly remember thinking "this a definitively a black and white picture". 1. Because there was no color ! 2. Because the subject is abstract 3. The grey tones were very nice and I knew I could play with that in post-production. 4. I had nice clouds in sky (detailled structure in the white parts) Curious to read your comments and thank you in advance:-)
  19. If you understand French: Tests d'écrans photo et vidéos par Arnaud Frich The guy is an independant photographer and critic. He is a reference in France. I had him twice on the phone before buying my EIZO. Very nice and highly competent gentleman (I live in Belgium and so he doesn't make any money on me but was very helpful).
  20. Oh by the way, you like the light post because you saw so many of them in the night photos of Paris made by BRASSAI !
  21. To be honest I didn’t think. I was talking to a photographer that asked me a question when I suddenly saw the couple walking towards the sun and with all the leaves on a floor (noticed earlier),I had to hurry to catch the decisive moment. when I notice something interesting I then start thinking what is needed to MAKE an interesting picture instead of TAKING a picture by just pressing the shutter. in other words, I act as a hunter and wait for things to in place before shooting, you say in English.
  22. There is only one world reference : EIZO! I just bought the CS2731 model to replace an older EIZO model that just works still fine but doesn’t play at all in the same league as this one. I recommend you also buy the top to avoid parasite light. Pure happiness for 15 years. They give 5 year warranty. https://www.eizo.fr/fr/photographe-amateur/2474-ecran-eizo-creator-edition-lcd-27p-cs2730-noir.html
