Last week I went street shooting with a friend of mine.

 

Epson R-D1

Summicron 35mm IV

 

 

The full set an be viewed here:

Full set features the Summicron IV + CV12 + CV75

Not sure how long it will be up though.

 

 

As always critiques, comments, suggestions, and photoshop redux are encouraged.

 

Cheers,

Philip

Philip -

 

I'm glad to see you returning to post images again. This is a very fun series (my favorite one is only on the link -- Your friend is photographing the woman with the white gauze outer shirt) and I encourage you to add that one to this thread, or start a new thread with it. All but one of the super high contrast shots worked well, but I thought the one of the woman walking the dog towards you needed more shadow detail. In the one with the two women walking a dog I thought including the rear view mirror added a nice sense of space and location, though I wonder about traffic behind you at the stop sign (It looks as though you stopped at a stop sign).

Philip -Very enjoyable set...even more so is the slideshow via the link. I like the richness and deep contrast of the colors, emphasising the golden quality of the sunlight. A great sense of improvisation in the best sense of the word.

cheers:

Sam

Very enjoyable series, Philip. Looks like a great outing in the city.

 

How come the images on the web site look so much better than the same images posted here? I was going to suggest that you raise the highlights some of the pics in this thread, but then I looked at the web site and they look fine. Must be the jpg vs. Flash conversion?

Thank you Stuart,

I can always count on you for thoughtful insight.

I don't recall holding up cars behind me when I was stopped at the light, so I presume they were crossing against the light.

 

 

They were all shot RAW @ ISO 200. Opened in Lighroom. No developing. Auto WB.

 

 

This is the one?

And here is a developed version. What do you think?

Thank you Sam.

 

Right you are Ed, just the other week.

 

Thanks Brian. Which one is 1009? Looking forward to more summilux D photos.

 

Thanks John.

I exported them with the default LR jpeg settings, which is a bit compressed, the last three I posted are a bit less so. Better?
