M11 for me Posted December 27, 2019 Share #443 Posted December 27, 2019 isn't this picture simply unsharp? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In real life, my eyes often just look in some direction without actually focusing on anything particular. Maybe I am thinking of something else, but I can’t just stop seeing unless I close my eyes. A photograph without any particular focus may serve to describe such a mood or feeling. I don’t know if that was the photographers intention in this case, however. 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one looks for clarity, or sharpness one should not be in the Noctilux f1 forum.. That 'one' should look for context, composition, meaning, denotative and connotative levels of signs, etc, etc, rather than a 'simple' clarity. And most of the time life is obscure, as in the photograph, leaving behind an old question concerning ambiguity..

And most of the time life is obscure, as in the photograph, leaving behind an old question concerning ambiguity.. I understand now. But at the same time I understand nothing. Is the Noctilux about to make unsharp pictures? If it is the intention to have the image blured then the Noctilux makes little sense (to me) as this effect is possible with any other lens. Probably one needs the new 90mm Noctilux as with that one it is even easier to shoot unsharp images. I agree though that it might be an intention to have nothing sharp on an image but that this is now in this thread it is rather strange. But pls do not feel offended. When I see all the LIKES in the posts above then I feel to be in the wrong thread. Edited December 27, 2019 by M10 for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can achieve this with a 90mm, say, Summicron-M 90mm pre-asph lens, but the perspective will be different. And this f1 aperture, and the glasses used in the lens definitely produce this 'dream-like' images which is impossible to achieve with a Cron-90 pre-asph. in this perspective.

Metin Colak Posted December 27, 2019 Share #448 Posted December 27, 2019 I would like to add one more point. When I took this photograph my mind was occupied by one of the grandiose figures of American literature, Edgar Allan Poe, and his famous motto: "All that we see or seem/ Is but a dream within a dream." 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pattyfrank Posted December 27, 2019 Share #449 Posted December 27, 2019 All things in my view are transformed by the Noctilux 1.0. A very elegant explanation Metin. Evikne's point is good also, "Most of the time life is obscure". Actually these two photographers, among others and their shared images/experience is why I sought this lens.

M10-P, Noctilux-M 1:1:50 v4 Thanks for the reference Patty, very much appreciated!.. This lens gives you opportunities to create different visions, meanings in which you think that you are getting closer and closer to the essence of the things, and our existence.. Beyond technik lies a deep obscurity full of intrigue and drama... This lens is not for everyone, but the one who needs to transcends reality. Best regards, Metin Colak.
