"I was bruised and battered, I couldn't tell what I felt.

I was unrecognizable to myself.

Saw my reflection in a window and didn't know my own face.

Oh brother are you gonna leave me wastin' away"

This, for me, is a powerful image. Thank you, Paul.

I know this is an UWA thread but just bear with me because as I was talking about one of my all time photographic heroes Bill Brandt and I live about 3miles away from where he took some of his greatest ever images I thought that I would post my version of what I consider to be Brandt's greatest ever image.

 

Originally taken in Halifax West Yorkshire, on the steps going up to the footbridge over the railway line to the old Halifax North Bridge railway station. Brandt called it "A snicket in Halifax" and took it in 1945 on his Rolleiflex.

 

My picture is my homage to him and was taken in 2012 on my Leica M9 at exactly the same location and processed in the same high contrast way that Brandt did all those years ago. Nothing has changed, the scene in just as it was when Brandt took the picture.

 

For our members who maybe are not familiar with the work of Bill Brandt I would say go and have a look at this wonderful photographers work because to me at least it just mesmerises me and I am awestruck by what he achieved with his Rolleiflex and laterly with a second hand ex Police wide angle camera that I think he bought from a junk shop for about 7 Shillings and Sixpence.

Well done, Paul, and thank you.

I think this one is not easy to overrate. It's worthy to print because it won't be boring for at least 1 or 2 years. Congrats for timing, composition and tonal scale (without pushing the sky (or too much)). The proportionate heights/lengths of the girl on the bike and the man left behind the fountain are a but surreal; the decisive moment of the mother with her child at the right, etc etc. Edited by otto.f

Reading this image thread helped me decide what to get. 

 

Who else loves their 21mm f/1.4 Asph?
