stuny Posted August 23, 2006 Share #2 Â Posted August 23, 2006 John - Â Nice how you've gotten it to stand out from the dark framing of the foreground buildings, and the interessting sky -- just enough contrast to pull it off without losing shadow or highlight detail.

Guest rubidium Posted August 25, 2006 Share #4 Â Posted August 25, 2006 Well done! The lack of autos makes this a rather timeless image. Jim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmr Posted August 25, 2006 Author Share #7 Â Posted August 25, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Thanks for the feedback guys, it's much appreciated. Â Mike, much as I'm growing to respect the abilities of the C-Lux, especially when shooting B&W, I'd have to admit it's not much of a shift camera. I made sure I'd got everything I wanted in the frame, with a little margin for error around the subject, and used Photoshop to sort out the inevitably receding verticals one gets when shooting close-up from street level.

dotandcom Posted August 27, 2006 Share #9 Â Posted August 27, 2006 John, I like this a lot. I agree about the timeless quality. Most of all, I admire the way that you have corrected the verticals. It's something I have trouble with. Indeed, I often feel that an image with 'straightened' verticals is more unsettling than the uncorrected version. This must be a good example of the benefits of not overdoing it. Â All the best, Â Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
