This is what Moriyama Daido calls a “no finder shot”: I held the camera in front of my chest after I set the focus and shutter speed. Because the background at the right is very bright, 3-4 stops brighter than the university student, I underexposed her by about ½ stop — that was sufficient not to blow out any highlights. This shows how well modern camera sensors can handle highlights. On the other hand, the background on the left is a tinted mirror with a somewhat wavy surface, as you can seen the reflection of the building behind the main subject. The scene is just before the Siam station of the Bangkok Skytrain, where the elevated pedestrian walkway that runs along several high end shopping malls joins the station platform.

It seems that production is catching up with demand as my dealer called offering the Summaron.  Sadly I no longer desire this lens. Its beauty is great but I'm not in love with the images.

Superb image and lovely light.

 

James Ravilious's new book 'The Recent Past' arrived last week and is highly recommended for b&w 'country' photos, all taken with a M3.

Thank you.

 

Yes, Ravilious was also a real master of photographing into the light. I believe that he used a highly modified lens hood so that he could use uncoated lenses to get as much shadow detail as possible.
