I’ve never used the HDR function. Beautiful image. Will have to try it.

Was that done with the SL's jpeg HDR function or done with software? Very nice, BTW.

I used the Aurora HDR software.  I took 3 exposures at the time and merged the raw files in Aurora.  I much prefer to work with raw rather than jpegs.

Thanks!

I have made a page with Adobe's spark with more photos from this exhibition - all with the SL and the Summieren 90SL at open aperture. Thanks for having a look.

I hope you don't mind. I've copied a couple of your ideas and will add more later. I do give credit to you. The camera does not recognize the lens. The image in the link below was opened from a DNG in Preview with the stock profile and exported as JPEG. Not touched, no sharpening, no corrections whatsoever. It's an M lens. 😀

Edit because the link did not work initially.

I'm curious as to why you would compose with both headlights out of focus?

I would much prefer the entire front end of the car be in razor sharp focus.

Isn't the point of photo to show off the car's details? Or am I missing something?

Differential focus is a tool at our disposal and has its users and uses … and can  'show off' parts which overall razor sharpness cannot … and differential focus can be applied to any subject.

What dunk said. As was mentioned, I looked at Holger Forst's Classic Cars gallery and loved the way he applied differential focus in a similar shot of his in particular. I thought it worked really well and was inspired to use an M lens with a very shallow DOF to try to emulate it.

Since this is inspired by my initial photo of this Alfa Romeo - I have/had different versions with different focus points and the miniature model-like, almost artificial look when focusing in the middle is what I liked most, but the beauty lies of course in the eye of the beholder. And, btw, the LFI gallery seems to see this as well since this photo has made it to their Automobile gallery;)

Best regards, Holger
