Philip,

here it is, and I repeat, not film, not even Leica, but shown purely to show that stitching can work, sometimes.

The memory is not what it used to be, but I'd say the Ha (Hydrogen Alpha) shot is at least 4 panels, maybe 6. I tended to shoot quarters, plus a pair across the middle.

The white light shot possibly the same.

Getting them aligned in Photoshop was tedious, but once you got a system going it wasn't too bad.

Coincidentally, I noted the Ha shot isn't completely flat, one segment seems darker than the other. This is usually noticed more when you view from afar, or make the image smaller.

Just wonderful images in this thread; here's another from Beijing and Dalian on Portra, M7/Summilux 50, zone focused and wide open.  This picture makes me hungry :)

I like both shots, Coogee. All you needed with the 2nd was for a puddle under the car and you would have had the full HCB decisive moment classic!

I agree with Eoin

Coogee nice shots , à la manière de HC Bresson , my inspiration source

Philip, I love this photograph for the dynamic feeling of your playing child enhanced by the "blur", my eye moves across following her perceived motion and the foreground interest too. The square format works especially well.

 

Thanks

I remember the colour shot Henry and actually prefer it to the black and white version.

The subtle tones looked wonderful.

Cheerio to all. We leave today on a five month trip to south east Asia.

Keep the great photographs going and I'll try and check in whenever possible.

Good wishes, good light, and all that jazz...

À plus tard !

Snip...

 

Recently, I wondered about shooting both types, concurrently, and producing a very non-scientific comparison. 

Gary

When I read Gary's post yesterday I immediately thought "Hmm, I spent Saturday afternoon taking pictures of the same scene with (1) M240 + 50mm Summilux-M ASPH and (2) 1957 IIIg + 1951 5cm Summicron Collapsible.  I had not set off with the intention of making direct comparisons between digital and film, more a case of feeling I had been neglecting the digital pairing and that I was keen to finish the film.  Anyway, Gary's interesting post caused me to actually make the comparisons and having done so, start posting them here - and I apologise for somewhat jumping on the bandwagon so to speak.

 

So - today's offering - same equipment - same Saturday walk - one digital, one Acros 100.

Bon voyage, I hope you'll have a great time. We're looking forward to the pictures.

I prefer the first one because of how the needles of the tree and the sky look.

Keith , thanks again for this useful comparison.

 

Both are nice but when you watch the details of trunk in the shadows and foliage

above and in the middle they have more details.The black of the photo 2 is not

what I call black film type.

The first picture is nicer , more nuance , more natural, clouds not plasticized , I am

certain that's film is picture 1

Montparnasse Tower (Feb 2017)

57 floors , 210 m taken with my Leicaflex SL (1970)

Exclusively offices. You have a very nice view of Paris in 360 ° ,

at the top of the tower. It is very nice in summer

 

 

Kodak TX400 (2017) - Summicron 50 (1970)

 

The definition and the black of this film are really superb !
