Standing Around


GXR A12-M, f1.4, 1/125, ISO 351, RAW, 53mm (Voigtlander Nokton f1.4 35mm)


Looks like a few bloggers on my blogroll had a waiting theme so this kind of fits in there but I did not want to title this post anything with waiting, too. ;)

I took this with the Nokton f1.4 35mm since I wanted a smaller and lighter camera today. Since I still have both at the moment I can alternate between them and see which one to keep.

I have raised the contrast and blown the highlights in the window to make the guy stand out more and have added some vignetting.

    I like the contrast here. Very bold and sillhouetted on that patterned glass.

    Vignette is a subtle nice touch. I vig quite a few of my b&w shots... just a little bit always seems to pronounce the subject.

  2. Thanks for the comment Bill!

    Vignetting works well on b&w pictures, not so much on colour or if it's overdone so I try to keep it minimal.
