platypus Posted August 11, 2014 Share #1  Posted August 11, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) If only this image could convey just how cold and how strong the wind was yesterday morning, blowing at gale force straight up from the Antarctic and bringing with it a series of small storms with granulated snow embedded in them. Nice light and shadow tearing across the valley though! M9/75 Summilux Welcome, dear visitor!

pauledell Posted August 11, 2014 Share #2 Â Posted August 11, 2014 Dee, Â A magnificent picture with the wide expanse, the gorgeous tones, the lovely sky with the clouds and the clarity. Â Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iduna Posted August 11, 2014 Share #3 Â Posted August 11, 2014 Dee, this is a marvellous picture with great clarity. This is indicating what you told about the cold nasty gale. Yet everything is tack sharp under a wide vivid sky. The house perched between protective trees is showing how rough the nature of this country can be.

platypus Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share #8 Â Posted August 12, 2014 A big thanks to all who looked and commented and to those who hit the "thanks" button. In my (very humble) opinion this shot says a lot about Leica equipment, it was taken while I stood fully exposed to the exceptionally strong wind at the very top of the hill, no tripod obviously, and I was really being buffeted about.....yet the image is sharp as could be = homage to Leica lenses!

platypus Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share #18 Â Posted August 14, 2014 Again, thanks to those who most recently looked & commented. The excellent DOF is down to a thirty plus year old Leica lens and, I guess, also to the sensor quality of Leica's M9 camera, as previously stated there was no tripod involved and the wind was challenging....... you've gotta admit that it's amazing gear!

fotografr Posted August 14, 2014 Share #19 Â Posted August 14, 2014 Stunningly beautiful image, despite the cold wind. The tonal range and clean transitions are absolutely lovely. Amazing gear, yes, but in the hands of an accomplished photographer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
