tashley Posted March 1, 2007 Share #1  Posted March 1, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I know I've been whining in another thread about a specific issue with one lens but you all know I love my M8 really - a lot - so I am very chuffed indeed that Leica have linked to my Venice Gallery from their M8 home page at  Leica Camera AG - Photography - M8  It's very small (gray in the list towards bottom right) but it is there...  Until November last year I'd never touched a Leica. Kudos to the M8 for 'bringing me on' !  Now I just have to figure how to make some money with it....  Tim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

james_h Posted March 1, 2007 Share #2  Posted March 1, 2007 Tim  Great to see those images again, hard to believe its only been 4 months but when you have the eye....  Just 1 side point, is there a bandwidth restriction for homepage on mac.com..? Edmund's profile page was unavailable due to restrictions and he uses homepage.mac.com.  regards Jim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

james_h Posted March 1, 2007 Share #4  Posted March 1, 2007 I think the last time he mentioned it that 300 people had downloaded his profiles (a 1MB zip file), but I'm not sure of the time scale.

Â Well they are great images and you could do worse than sell them to Leica for use in the next brochure. Magnum photographer or not, I thought the pictures in the original brochure were pretty dull and unlikely to inspire prospective buyers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnum photographer or not, I thought the pictures in the original brochure were pretty dull and unlikely to inspire prospective buyers.   Thank you Mark,  I have to say I liked their original shots ( do you mean the ones shot in London's black community?)  They were featured in a few Brit photo mags before the M8 was released and I thought their intimacy was quite compelling: I like what M cameras let you do with moderate wides in close situations, and the colour seems to me to be both saturated and understated - which is a hard thing to get right!  Best  Tim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wag Posted March 2, 2007 Share #17 Â Posted March 2, 2007 Bravo, Tim. Extraordinary images. What lens (lenses) did you use, if you don't mind my asking. Brad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tashley Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share #18  Posted March 2, 2007 Bravo, Tim. Extraordinary images. What lens (lenses) did you use, if you don't mind my asking. Brad   Hi Brad,  There's an alternative version of this gallery available at  Zenfolio | Tim Ashley | Venice Carnival with M8  If you hover your mouse over the top right of each enlarged shot (the 'i' icon) you'll see the full EXIF which will tell you the lens if coded. If not coded, it was either the CV15 or the 90 f2 'cron, you can tell by the DOF and perspectiive. If you can't tell, ask here and I'll try to reverse-engineer an answer...  Best  tim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
