pauledell Posted July 13, 2014 Share #2 Posted July 13, 2014 Louis, A great series with fine composition, lovely tones and sharpness. My favorites are the toy soldier standing guard and the wooden Indian chief looking out for the pesky palefaces. Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louis Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share #8 Posted July 14, 2014 Paul, Lami, Jim, Dan, Ali and Stuart, thank you very much for your encouraging feedback! Ali, I used to shoot a lot in La Vieille Ville. God knows how many photos I had of the cathedral and also of those canons with the colorful backgrounds! When I was still too young to have "Models"; I used to go shoot statutes in the museum!... Then later, I did not have any model problem when I studies in Les Beaux Arts! Stuart, whenever I am visiting Alexandria, I spend a good time in the Torpedo Factory and I am always amazed to see so many good photographers who remain unknown!...

I am having some troubles to calibrate my monitor for few weeks now and I am not sure if I am doing ok!... I must also add that, indeed, I do like deep b/w; so, I hope I am getting it more or less right! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
