Unrequited, romance at work (are you being served)


Biding time


Rugged up

A nice set

#1 is probably too oof on the subject on the right for me (but I'm a bigot about focus) - I'd burn out the distracting bright white reflection in the middle and bottom as well

#2 is a nice capture of everyday life (and boredom )

#3 probably my favourite

#4 really like this too (but I like indoor architecture shots if anyone hasn't noticed )

Do you have any pictures of Germans smiling...or are they still pissed off about the...oooops!

I actually like the light in the centre - almost gives the impression of the divide between the man and woman - almost an unrequited love kind of thing Just my 2c worth

Why would you be pissed off about having to work to 70 so a bunch of Greeks can retire at 50?

Anyway, I love the first - you have captured something that may or may not have existed, but placed a context that tells a great story.

Thanks for the feedback. Glad to hear that I'm no longer in my black phase

Isn't that always the case with a decisive moment?

HCB would have liked those images.....you have captured the spirit, and the quality, of his classic style. That's no mean feat. Incidentally, what equipment are you using?

Don't ask, because I fear of what he may say and I thusly become green.

Thanks Matt, that's the biggest compliment I've heard. I'm using an M9 with a Voigtlander 35mm, 50 Summicron and Noctilux, though I'm contemplating getting rid of the Summi since I haven't been using it as much. I've gotten used to the 35mm prime.

Nothing to be green about, I'd still do the same with any camera as long as I could shoot at f2.

True, however, in this world, there are objects which are just beautiful. I can write with a Bic pen, but writing with a Mont Blanc is much nicer.

I thought so. Nice combination. 35mm is my favourite street shooting focal length. It gets you, (and the viewer), involved with the subject. Keep doing that stuff because it's very good.

Absolutely! I love how close I have to get with the 35 to get anything meaningful and there are other times where space means everything. It's trained me to become much quicker in everything. Love this combo and thoroughly recommend it!
