Thanks.  That Zenitar does funny things with contrast and colour, and
is not at all flare-resistant.  There were some weird things happening
in this one, but I kind of like them...

Thanks for the comment.  Thanks to everyone else who took the time to
look and comment.

cheers,
frank

Thanks, Jack.  This one was (to my mind) about the light.

I'm glad you liked it.  Thanks for the comment.

Well handled tough exposure of a human interest scene.

PESO - Warming Sunrays

2008-11-03 Thread frank theriault
I was out playing around with my Zenitar 16mm fisheye on the weekend.
On the *istD it's more of a semi-fisheye, I guess, but it's still a
fun lens.

The air was cool but the sun felt warm, or to put it another way, it
was damned cold in the shade, which explains these people seeking a
sunny bench outside a coffee shop.

Comments welcome.
