pemayeux Posted May 11, 2007 Share #4 Posted May 11, 2007 William, you really stumbled onto some nice subject matter. Your exposures are perfect. I really like the the detail and and color. The richness of the detail shot is superb. Thanks for posting. Cheers, Paul. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddp Posted May 11, 2007 Share #5 Posted May 11, 2007 Number One really jumps out - you're right about the 75...impressive. Got these turned around rather quickly, no? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lambroving Posted May 12, 2007 Author Share #6 Posted May 12, 2007 Paul, It's not a very large place, but there is usually something interesting to see/shoot. I was loaded for a dull day and the sun came out though. Results not awful considering... Number One really jumps out - you're right about the 75...impressive. Got these turned around rather quickly, no? My local shop is in a class action suit against the company which bought out Agfa here. They gave up their machine, so the owner sent me to another lab 10 miles from here in Netcong, just off Route 80. Noritsu machine with huge scans, very big and sharp, but I'm not used to working with them yet. Price was excellent and from 40 frames, only one was a little messed up. A lot like your lab except the files are bigger and the detail is shocking. As for the 75/2, Ron loves the damn thing and I really must learn to use it more. I still think a 50 is the best lens for trains, as does Norbert Steinkamp. Except for the shot you liked above, I think the 50/1.4 ASPH would have worked better there that day on 160 NC. Could have shot those lichens at 125th too! Ron thinks the 75/2 is more gentle than its little brother though... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejd Posted May 12, 2007 Share #7 Posted May 12, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Very interesting trains and enjoyable photos. The colour and detail are terrific. 28/2, 50/1.4 asph, 75/2 -- you certainly have all the best lenses! Rgds, John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lambroving Posted May 14, 2007 Author Share #8 Posted May 14, 2007 Hello John! Long time, no see! Glad you enjoyed. Obviously, trains are not for everyboby. If you like the detail here, you should see the full files! Will send you #1 if you like. As for the lenses, bought most years ago when they were much less expensive..., and never more than one toy/year... Very interesting trains and enjoyable photos. The colour and detail are terrific. 28/2, 50/1.4 asph, 75/2 -- you certainly have all the best lenses! Rgds, John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
imported_peter_m Posted May 14, 2007 Share #9 Posted May 14, 2007 Nice set William. With the first one being my favorite. That crane looks interesting as well any shots of it. Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Sorry Peter, Been buried at work with little time for the Forum. Just coming up for air on Memorial Day. Maybe some rest on Thursday when the month is over! Light was highly variable and that crane was blocked by this. http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/sports-leisure-time/25618-black-river-western.html Maybe on some other visit there, but I've never noticed this particular wrecking crane before.

You're right, I have many Railway books in my library and the contain some fantastic photos taken by some of the best Rail photographers in the business and most state on 35mm Film, the 50mm is no 1, as it doesn't distort the body, Second is the 35mm. Third is the 75 -90 -100mm, I hope that helps. Ken. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
