Curves

GRD, f2.4, 1/8, ISO 1600, JPG b&w

Took this picture in the evening while walking home. I liked the light and shapes of the car. It seemed like it would make a good b&w picture and it did come out very well.

  1. The car seems to be saying "look at me I'm a star".

    Works well in B&W with the added humour of the signpost.

  2. Thanks Yesbuts!
    I think without the signpost I would not have noticed the car or would not have taken the picture.

  3. I really love the grain of GRD @ ISO1600. I often ask one of my friends that why GRD2 throw it away.

    =_=*

    Nice shot of this day, Mr. ricoh.

  4. Thanks Bhuminan! The grain/noise of the GRD I is great and gives a depth to the pictures. I saw prints at the SWPP Tradeshow and was disapointed to see some overly smooth images that looked flat and life less.
    It's a shame the GRD II is not as good when it comes to the image quality but I hope Ricoh will improve again for the next release.
