chakko Posted November 30, 2014 Share #1 Posted November 30, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) New to the Leica world. This is from my first outing with my new M9 + 50Lux. Many thanks to my wonderfully patient model, Roxanne. All I've done to them is cut the highlights back. Thoughts? Welcome, dear visitor!

jedi996sps Posted November 30, 2014 Share #2 Posted November 30, 2014 Welcome. The last one is my favourite. the 50lux at f1.4 is my weapon of choice.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fotografr Posted December 1, 2014 Share #4 Posted December 1, 2014 Welcome to Leica. The light quality in the second image is very nice (subject, too). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
erl Posted December 1, 2014 Share #5 Posted December 1, 2014 I like the treatment of the first. Second is nice. Third, I would snick the black point in a bit tighter to see if that improves the overall tone. Welcome to the forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iduna Posted December 1, 2014 Share #6 Posted December 1, 2014 welcome to the forum. Your first attempts are promising. The light in the first 2 pictures is very nice. The framing of the second one could be tighter, because there is much unused space above the dog's head. The open lens quality can be seen in the third picture. This needs a lot of training and I am sure you'll enjoy this challenging lens a lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted December 1, 2014 Share #7 Posted December 1, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) Chuck - Welco,e to the Forum, and based on these images I look forward to seeing more of them, and watching you grow with your vision. I agree with Erl's & Dee's suggestions and add that for #2, cropping not only above the dog, but also from the left, to move it off center,a nd leave more space in the direction it is facing would probably make that shot stronger.

pauledell Posted December 1, 2014 Share #8 Posted December 1, 2014 Welcome to the forum. You have a fine series with that great model dog. You and Roxanne are always welcome. Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chakko Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share #9 Posted December 2, 2014 Thank you all for your encouragement. I'm still rather chuffed with this camera. It has reignited my interest in photography after many years of neglecting my other gear (and pretending to be too busy). Best of all, it is forcing me to think about what I'm doing!

jaapv Posted December 2, 2014 Share #10 Posted December 2, 2014 Very nice. One thing I found with the M240 is that it needs slightly more capture sharpening than the M8 and M9. In other words, you can get them more crisp if you sharpen a bit more in ACR, keeping below the artefact level, of course.
