      Burano

      instantly recognizable, even without reading the caption. i really enjoyed that place, but it's been over 20 years since i was there.

        I saw some of Patrizia Zelano’s “Acqua Alta a Venezia 2019” series earlier today. Very painterly and stunning irl. Some background here.

        Thought it might be worth sharing, prompted in part by @Jett129’s recent trip to La Serenissima.

          @JDelage Really cool shots. Any insights into the settings you were experimenting with would be appreciated as I’m heading to Venice tomorrow.

          Sorry, I missed that as I was traveling. I have a bunch of pics to review from our 5 days in Val Gardena, in the Dolomites. I've been using the recipes from Reggie Ballesteros, whose content on Youtube I found very useful. This is is B&W recipe. I found it super useful both in cities and the mountains, and I think it'd work well indoors too. This is other recipe, and is a color one. It works well indoors and for street photo, but I didn't like the colors in the mountain, esp. the skies.

                                      @Indigo-Alchemist yes , I saw the reports too. For sure it is a very interesting camera, especially for street photography. Since 2014 I have the Leica M9 Monochrom and it is still a joy to use when you are in the mood for only b/w. These niche cameras are pretty cool but I think as your only camera you are a bit limited.
                                      Here a photo with the Monochrom

                                        @Marc2706 , I have an M10 as my go-to camera but have always been curious about the dynamic range of a pure mono sensor but did not wanted to spend the money on a Leica for pure mono that’s where I see the GR mono as a perfectly priced tool.

                                          @Indigo-Alchemist congrats to. The M10. To me it is the most beautiful and reliable Leica M camera. Also the used Monochrome cameras like the M 240 are still expensive. Did you know that there is also a monochrome cameras like the from Pentax? But it is ugly in comparison to the GR

                                            I recently traded in my trusty m246 of ten+ years along with its m240 sibling to get an m11p and couldn't be happier. I loved the 246 so much, but dynamic range wasn't really anything super noticable to me compared to the color version. Sure, there was an extra stop in the shadows to pull out but the highlights were gone in an instant if you aren't careful. The resolution and high iso capability on the other hand were impressive. In addition to those things, the other thing I truly miss is just the whole mono experience from needing to see light, using color filters on occasion, and having an ultra simple work flow in post. Never having to worry about while balance as someone who is a little color blind is really nice 😃
