kakuschke Posted August 3, 2008 Share #4 Posted August 3, 2008 An overgrown grave - forgotten or not I don't know. But they all deserve remembrance. Leica III with a Summitar 5.0cm AGFA APX 400 @ 400 Dear Keith, This photographs impresses me twofold: First it is - like Wolfgang already pointed out "Eternity turned into stone". The second reason is its technical brilliance. Perhaps one should not talk too much about the technical background when coming into contact with death and remembrance. But on the other hand I cannot help being impressed by the sharpness and the brilliance of a photograph which was taken by a lens that is now appproximately half a century old. I have just before me a photograph taken by Cartier-Bresson "Russians in the museum" (a deeply moving picture from his book "Moscou", published 1955) made with the same equipment. But the then black and white film (by the way Ilford HP 3) was not able to reproduce the picture in such a quality as present day films can. My conclusion was: The quality of the Summarit was not too good. Your photograph shows that I was very much mistaken. Thank you again and best wishes Michael Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dachs Posted April 28, 2011 Share #5 Posted April 28, 2011 agree all that 9previous posts) plus, the name so English (tripod screw threads are still Whitworth in spite of the french and japs, because it is the best thread ever for it's purpose in various materials) The grave may not be THAT Whitworth, it doesn't matter; the excellence of the photo makes it even more real, and the shot is perfect. Thank you. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
