The Q makes it possible to get so much closer than I ever do with an M.  Here's a short study of my steel bicycle.  I'm not sure if these had anything to do with it, but shortly after posting them in a thread in Barnack's bar about bicycles, that whole thread disappeared.  Here I brazenly post them again 😉

I'm into bikes as well - see "username" but it worries me that Q2 monochrome ( haven't got one yet) is going to be very critical.   Shame you're riding Shimano by the way but none of us are perfect.

Lovely shot.  Makes that sky pop a bit.  Have to go back to filters like in the old B&W film days.  I guess you could say that is one advantage of a color sensor converted to B&W in that you can apply the filters post.  I have noticed if I want to really darken a sky by knocking down the blue channel a lot I get a halo effect around things like branches or edges of buildings that I cannot get rid of, so I have been toying with the idea of using a deep red filter on my color cameras then converting to B&W to see if the halo effect still is there.  I suspect it will not be there.

I can't do video and don't have proper editing software anyway, but I found myself on Redgrave Fen this afternoon amongst the starlings with just the mono - so I recorded this and then reduced it from 835mb to 35mb so as to make it allowable.  .  . Nothing else done! It looks amazing at full size!

Love this - looks fantastic black and white.

Looking forward to your bike shots once you get the camera.  Good luck with a brush and some soap first 🙂

Just about my favourite place in the world (just nip around the two headlands to get to Pedney!)

Agreed. Some four decades ago, if I couldn't get to sleep easily and if the weather was clear, I'd amble down to the beach, lay down on the peculiar mica sand and just stare up at the milky way, shooting stars, commercial air traffic and even what I assumed were satellites. The cliffs on three sides formed a perfect light trap for the night sky. The crashing waves on the shore was a brilliant soundtrack, augmented sometimes by the sound of the speaker array of Tater Du lighthouse near Lamorna or the clanging of the bell mounted on the Runnel Stone buoy off Gwennap Head. This also had a wave-operated tube thing making a sound known locally as 'moaning minnie'.

Midwinter horn blowing 

The sound of this man blowing his midwinter horn is extra special is these times.
According to the tradition he explained me "we blow these horns especially to let our friends, neighbours and loved ones know we think about them, that we are still here and doing fine".

Jono. Wow. That’s fantastic. Thanks for posting.

Rather gruesome road kill from my walk today.  I walked the same lane a week ago and it wasn't there . . .

I'm enjoying the instant results that I don't usually get, given my affinity for film.
