Photograph and Camera talk

[Jett129]

Another one of @Denimhead-0 Lots of cool stuff going on in this one. Shadows,reflections,setting sun,and IH. The motorcycle eye candy doesn't hurt either. Last but certainly not least,it's nice when you get to see a Forum member in this thread.

@Jett129 Love the pics @Jett129 I was a pleasure hanging out. Just wish you still had the Springer so we could ride together

[Jett129]

@Denimhead-0 Funny enough,the guy that bought/has my Springer,has the exact same wheels as you,and he put apes on it. I'll try and find the picture.

[Jett129]

Not bad in B&W.

@SFMCfranky you got one of these moments! Very well done!

[SFMCfranky]

@Marc2706

Thank you, Sir.

Absolutely love those yoho XT5 shots @derek111

Looks like 23mm except the third and the last which look like 50mm or so.

16-55 or what are you shooting with there?

A couple from our weekend trip to the Alps, all shot with the XT4 and my 23mm 1.4

[Marc2706]

I have never seen so intense eyes

[Jett129]

@Marc2706 Great shot,love how you used the shadow. I find myself kind of leaning more into shadows as of late. As far as the eyes go,that’s one of the hallmarks of,I think,just about all of your portraits.

I was today years old when I found out there was a photo forum on here! This is awesome!! Psyched to see everyone’s images! I’m mostly an M shooter with a GRIII for fun as well.

[derek111]

@weftyarn thanks man, great shots as well.

I actually shot these with a cheapo TTartisan 25mm F2 lens I picked up not that long along. I wanted something to bring camping that was small, almost pancake style, that I didn't really need to worry about banging around. It has it's quirks for sure, but for the price, I have been super impressed.

[weftyarn]

Just goes to show it’s all about the eyes behind the camera and not the hardware

[weftyarn]

that’s a stunning portrait @Marc2706

@jmp777
Bought my wife a gr111x for her bday back in June. She’s got all the recipes and stuff saved for it. I’ll snap some pics here and there, and she’ll snap denim pics for me win win. such a rad little camera though

[jmp777]

@meatmarketdenim1 that’s awesome! I should start having one of my kids take denim photos! My wife just pokes fun at me

The GR’s are killer little pocket cameras. We’re heading up to Vermont this weekend and I was on the fence about what to bring. My work cameras are too big, so I’m going to force myself to use the M with a 35mm the whole week.

[Marc2706]

@Jett129 thanks a lot! You are right, I am really a fan of eyes in portraits!

[Marc2706]

@weftyarn thanks a lot! Happy to hear that you like it! Greetings to Munich!

[Jett129]

@Marc2706 Just curious...Have you ever,deliberately, photographed someone with their eyes closed? I can't recall ever seeing a portrait of someone with their eyes closed. Not sure why you would do that.

[jmp777]

I don't get to do much street anymore, but figured I'd post some stuff up and say hi.
