stray cat Posted May 26, 2020 Share #69463 Posted May 26, 2020 On 5/25/2020 at 12:04 PM, Ernest said: Astounding! The paramedics are shouting, "Clear!" They don't need the paddles on this one; it's breathing vital life. This is alibi enough for artists to never leave Taos. The breath of blue. I am reaching for Winsor Newton Cerulean Blue (137) for the pickup and the door, then mix in a swipe of Manganese (382) for the sky, so subtle, which brings up the assertive Cad Yellow (108), playing with Cad Lemon (086), offset with standby Raw Sienna (128) and punctuation Raw Sienna (128), Burnt Umber (104), and Yellow Ochre (136). Is there a law against having too much fun? Not here! Even the curb gets into the act! Bravo, bravo. Encore! 13 hours ago, philipus said: I echo what others have said, this is amazing (and being Swedish I'm a bit partial to the chosen palette of course ) But there's another thought that enters my head seeing this, which is that it is rare, extremely rare, to see a photo that would work equally well in both colour and monochrome. This is definitely such a photo. Just sublime, Phil, sublime. Thank you so much, Rog and Philip - I really appreciate your thoughts on this picture. Thank you all who gave it a nudge. I must admit that, when I saw it coming together, and the truck actually inched forward enough (it was a Saturday morning traffic snarl near an open market) I almost fumbled the camera out of my hands raising it to get the shot. "Please move just a little forward, NO not too far, that's right, is it focussed, enough depth of field... YES!" Click and - then it was gone. Sometimes (not often enough) the photography gods look down and smile. Interestingly enough, Philip, I may well have happened to have had black and white film (Fomapan or FP4) in the camera as I was using it quite a bit but just happened to have Ektar, with its Winsor & Newton catalogue of colour, loaded at the time. 11 hours ago, Ernest said: Sometimes I am rightly accused of overstaying my weekend pass, but just to allay those accusations of misdirecting my focus, always a challenge, I do not go around with the catalog of Winsor Newton numbered oil colors in my head. It's just that my enthusiasm for your palette in this vibrant take on Taos life nudged me to my taboret and all those wondrous oils no doubt feeling like abandoned orphans suffering decades of neglect. So I've taken the audacious liberty to reinterpret, piggyback if you will, through loose abstraction your work, here, I apologize in advance for any offense, but this was the only way I could answer the challenge of the visual play that caromed in my mind.

Rog, most certainly au contraire - I am sincerely humbled and honoured that you reconstructed the design of my picture into this wonderful, playful, fragments of the real-world assemblage. I can clearly identify, from this, Philip's patriotic remembrance of the Swedish flag. But - ah, wait a minute - you suffered my fumble and the truck DID move on! This, though, is extraordinary and I am in awe of the attention to detail. 1 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least someone is supporting the economy! I've got the Summicron-C 1:2/40mm, not the M-Rokkor, but I suspect it is the same optical formula, see also here. It's the most compact lens I own for the M-system, doesn't protrude much and very light. The focal length of in-between 35 and 40 I find ideal for travel - I happen to know that you have a little book of images of an Italian journey - most of those have been photographed with that little lens - though the Implosion effect may mean that some of the lens characteristics are obscured. The lens seems to be designed to provide contrast, so images may appear harsh - typical for many Leica 70ies lenses. I quite like this characteristic.

It was pretty dark (1/2 second,) a zone focus camera, low ISO, and a VF less than ideal. I cannot say how many times I have missed a shot because I was messing with focus or exposure settings, only to see the subject go away. I mean, I would have had something if I had just pushed the button, first, and worried about the second shot after that. One thing I am learning from these less than optimal conditions and cameras: Just shoot. Best, Wayne Edited May 26, 2020 by Wayne 1 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That little book, Via Francigena, has been very influential - technically through the realization that Color Implosion was indeed an excellent film in the right hands and for exposing me to some beautiful examples of the 40mm lens. These influences have caused me to try both the film and, now, the lens! Also aesthetically because of the beautiful, spiritual pictures taken on a very personal journey in often sodden conditions. An absolute treasure for which I want to thank you again.

As you are on a shopping spree anyway, you may want to look for a VC 4/24 snapshot skopar as well. Small, light, not coupled to the rangefinder and an ideal travel companion together with the 40mm.
