What technic did you apply on this? Is it zone focusing or you adjust the focusing instantaneously on every shot ( and that is what I do. I can't cope with zone focusing/ You don't have to answer.

With M4 and Apo 50 2 This is a fabulous photo benqui I have heard about this film before it was to be introduced and the photos and the colors were very different. I highly believe the lens you used is also contribute to a greater effect as far as the quality concern. I love this colors. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stray cat Posted February 2, 2019 Share #57782 Posted February 2, 2019 4 minutes ago, Cyril Jayant said: I like this as it gets the eye to scan all around the environment where he is attached and find the whole story. The lighting you have selected is very interesting Stray Cat. Thank you so much, Cyril. It IS an intriguing workspace. This man (I think he was introduced to me as "fuzzface") is the specialist at restoring railway lamps. It was hot, dark and smelly (that pervasive industrial solvent stench) and he is working in a cramped, messy environment. Yet the calibre of the work these guys were producing was astounding. I wish I could claim responsibility for the light - it is what it was - but it was the rimlight on his face, and the glisten from a thin veneer of sweat, that got me excited to take some pictures of fuzzface in the first place. 5 minutes ago, Ernest said: Just a little late to the party, but the hors d'oeuvres look delicious. I am piling on with comments from Gary, Christoph, Adam, et al, because they catch the industry of man at his work, and there is that invitation to participate in the reality of the milieu, ping-ponging back and forth between his eyes and hands, discerning what he's doing. What intrigues even more, though, is the definition of the man in the flotsam and jetsam that surrounds him. It's not a photograph most would take, a cinematic medium shot even though it's a 28mm, but it illustrates perfectly the play of negative and positive space. An object can be defined by its surroundings, as writers often do by the choice of selective details to define a character or a narrative. Watercolor artists do the same when they use the white of the Arches paper for white passages in a painting, rather than use the gauche technique of using white paint. This makes watercolor challenging in the play of positive/negative space because there's no going back when the painting decisions have been made. What immediately flashed for me, though, was the sense of 17th century lighting, the window, the highlights on the profile, and the kind of psychological portrait that calls to mind Vermeer. In Vermeer, even a woman who is seemingly doing nothing, sitting with her eyes closed, perhaps dreaming, there's a kind of magnetic pull of the composition, the lighting, the palette, the objects as a mirror of psychological moment. In your "Railway Workshop," even the man's chair is a tool rack. There's no question this shot cannot be sentenced to the editing floor. Cheers, Rog Rog, what can I say? Thank you so much. As usual with your thoughtful, expansive and generous comments, there is so much to learn. I am intrigued by your mention of the interplay of positive and negative space, and perhaps the divergence from cinematic conventions - concepts I'd never have considered but will now look forward very much thinking about. Your mention of Vermeer makes me ponder that 17th century Dutch houses, rooms, kitchens, workshops and so on were lit similarly - ie with a large, main window light and the placement of various ancillary lights (candles in the 17th century, small electric bulbs in 21st century Queenscliff) to chase the dark from those corners that missed out. Photographically, I find these discoveries irresistible - the link to classic portraiture lighting, almost anachronistically (though incredibly commonly) found in smelly, hot, cramped workshops today. As to the human element - fuzzface betrays in the picture that he is able to concentrate strongly - singularly - on his task at hand, while things that might make his tasks more comfortable - getting rid of some of that flotsam and jetsam that you mention - well, that's just not even on his radar. Who can say when he might be in need of whatever's in those plastic bags or ice-cream containers? I want to also thank you very much for mentioning, a few posts back, Robert Frost's extraordinary little poem, Stopping By the Woods on a Snowy Evening. A poem that existed way back there on the periphery of memory that I was able to delightedly reacquaint with. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My choice was not so much based on the environment, but on the man. I am certain he WOULD fit right in with my crowd. In the second photo, its the open face. Being pulled out of his concentration. A welcome break brought about by an interruption from a friend, or somebody showing interest......At any rate, a fellow traveler. His face is so open.

Best, Wayne Thank you so much for these thoughtful observations, Wayne. I can imagine the conversation - the technical/mechanical know-how you've accumulated over the years and this man and his project - the workarounds, the lateral thinking to get things the way they should be. A case in point: the man who showed me around (Ken) showed me some old, broken pieces of structural timber recovered from the carriage they were working on - Australian Red Cedar. He said it doesn't exist any more - beautiful timber, light and strong that out forebears in their wisdom used for firewood until it became extinct. Now, rather than throw it out, they recover what they can and use it for louvres or window frames or whatever else they can think of for the current project. As fuzzface's workbench testifies - nothing is wasted. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Sprung! It was on the lens and I was too lazy to take it off. Its presence in the interior photos adds nothing, of course, except to rob me of an f-stop - the photos shown were taken at 1/30, f2.8 whereas I'd have had a nice comfortable 1/60 without it.
