PESO -- Chartreuse Coupe II [BW]

2007-02-22 Thread P. J. Alling
One more PESO and that will be enough for a while.  I decided to do a 
BW conversion on the Chartreuse Coupe II that I posted a while ago.  
Of course that would have removed the reason for its name so I made a 
few alterations.

and the original, in case anyone cares:

As usual comments are welcome, but may be totally ignored.

The black and white conversion looks nice, but I'm not a big fan of
bw with a splash of color photos.  Personal preference.  Nothing
wrong with it.  That said, I prefer the original.

PESO -- Chartreuse Coupe II

2006-08-25 Thread P. J. Alling
This is a bit more timeless.

http://www.mindspring.com/~megazip/PESO_--_chartreusecoupeii.html

Technical Info.:

Pentax *ist-Ds ISO 400 @ 1/350sec (Av)
smc Pentax FA 28-200mm f3.8-5.6 AL[IF] @f4.0 (38mm)

Notes:

I wasn't going to post this one the focus was a bit off.  It needs to be 
a bit in front of the driver to get the entire car in acceptable focus 
while rendering the background as sharp as possible for what I wanted to 
achieve , and even though the car wasn't moving very fast there's 
apparent motion blur in the taillights at full resolution.  However I 
touched it up a bit and the problems aren't as noticeable at web resolution.

As usual comments are welcome but may be totally ignored.

The cat sig is coming down as soon as I verify that I'm attributing the 
next one correctly.  I hope I haven't offend any cat lovers too much.

Its easy to understand why the cat has eclipsed the dog as modern America's 
favorite pet. People like pets to possess the same qualities they do. Cats are 
irresponsible and recognize no authority, yet are completely dependent on 
others for their material needs. Cats cannot be made to do anything useful. 
Cats are mean for the fun of it

I actually like this one better compositionally.  Nice shot and a neat car.

It is a nice angle on the car but, the background is rather busy and
it looks to frozen - not sure if it is just parked or driving along.
The driver position seems to indicate movement, but the image does
not.  Also the saturation and contrast are a lot lower in this one.

I like the first better.
