Downtown Montreal

Hi everyone. It's been a whole week since I've had my Digilux2. No regrets buying this one at all. My first Leica, and probably not my last. Here are two shots of the Hudson's Bay Company's Montreal downtown building that looked "good enough" to me. Cropped to 800x600 in GIMP, no corrections of any sort. Suggestions are welcome.

 

More to come.

 

Thanks

 

Paul

Paul -

 

congratulations on finally getting the D2. You're already showing some of the D2 Leica glow. With #2 I rotated it 3 degrees to the right and sharpened jsut a bit. Don;t be affraid to make adjustments after shooting.

wow.... that was a big difference for sure. I am really hesitant to start down the road of digital fix-ups solely due to the fact that once I start, the rest of my pics will look worse. I will want to go back through everything I have on disk to fix them in that case, but just that one fix-up you did has already convinced me. What a difference a small touch up will do! Thanks a million.

Hello Paul,

 

My youngest daughter graduated from McGill University last spring. My wife and I visited a few times to this beautiful city. The last time we visited was in the Spring of 05, and I was shooting with a D2......great camera, congratulations, and have fun. It is still my most expensive camera......Al

Thanks Albert. Yeah, Montreal is a truly beautiful city. Too bad winter is sooo long. I am having great fun with the camera so far and am not planning another digital cam purchase for at least a decade.... ;-}
