Photograph and Camera talk

(Way too) loooong time no post

Borrowed the mighty Fuji 50mm 1.0 from @don_pipone which is absolutely magic with that 1.0 aperture

The sheer size of this bad boy is a bit intimidating but still i attempted some street photography with it

[Jett129]

Really wonderful. The escalator shot,the people on the train,the bottle,and you’re right it’s been way too long since you’ve posted. Thanks!

[weftyarn]

much appreciated as always @Jett129

[Jett129]

Things were definitely “Looking Up” today at the Jersey Shore Eclipse Viewing Party.

[Jett129]

A bunch more from today's festivities.

[Jett129]

Pure joy!

[SKT]

Some great shots @Jett129

[Jett129]

@SKT Thank you. It was nice that everyone was so enthralled with the eclipse that they were oblivious to me. I’m not usually comfortable doing this kind of photography.

[Mizmazzle]

@Jett129 really incredible how you’ve captured their wonder of the event, but still, even behind the solar glasses, their personality is on high display. Great shots.

[Jett129]

@Mizmazzle Thank you for noticing, but I deliberately went for the pictures where peoples emotions were visible,wether it be joy,or the frustration of using the glasses.

[weftyarn]

the eclipse shots are excellent @Jett129
the pure joy in all those faces…

Another episode of Subway People

Having borrowed Pipo my 23mm I was kind of forced to go long and what can i say, this 90mm is becoming my favorite lens.
Never ever would have thought i’d do street with this.

[pechelman]

90mm would be about the last thing i'd ever consider for street/urban as well, but you do it justice @weftyarn
really like how some of these compositions turn the everyday into slightly abstract and with a good geometric balance.

Hi my name is Marc. I am new in this forum and besides denim I love portrait photography. Analog or digital, I don‘t care. For me it is a question of my mood. I hope you like the photos

1.) Niloofar from Teheran

2.) Woman in the streets of Kashan, Iran

3.) Reelika

@Marc2706 Every single one of them is just great,you can’t,at least I couldn’t ,just casually scroll through them. Each one has its own compelling story to tell. I love really great portrait photography,although I rarely attempt it. Any info on what you’re shooting with etc. would be appreciated.

[weftyarn]

Great shots @Marc2706
The second one is my favorite

[Marc2706]

@Jett129 thanks a lot for your kind words Jett! Much appreciated! I am a bit old-fashioned and I really love the look and the haptics of Leica cameras (analog M3, M-A, digital M10) except a small and light Nikon Zfc.
The first photo with Niloofar was taken with the Nikon Zfc. The second one with the senior lady with a M3 and a Kodak Tmax 400 film, and the last two photos with a M10.

[Marc2706]

@weftyarn thanks a lot! It is also one of my all-time favorites.

[Jett129]

@Marc2706 I would also pick the second one as my favorite as well,as it reminded me of a picture, I think, called Woman in a window,by Henri Cartier-Bresson. Are you printing these as well?

[Marc2706]

@Jett129 thank you very much. Number 2 is also for me very special because it happened in the streets of Kashan in Iran. It took a while until I had the courage to ask her for a photo. But she smiled and said „yes, for sure, why not“. I also made a print of this photo. Sometimes I print photos but only for special occasions.
