Drawing from two recent threads... Citizen Matters published a report on the Women's Day demonstrations in Bangalore, with two of my pictures: http://bangalore.citizenmatters.in/articles/view/883-bengaluru-reacts-fearless-karnataka-campaign
Their versions are heavily compressed, but you can see the originals here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jace/sets/72157614979031608/ I carried a single lens that evening -- a 50mm 1.8 prime -- and shot everything in raw format with Program mode (which is Nikonesque for semi-automatic mode) and Auto ISO, rising up to ISO 1600 as the night progressed. No flash. To process, I imported them into Lightroom using it's "Auto Tone" setting and exported to JPEG. I think the results speak for what is possible without being bothered with technicalities. Comments welcome. On a side note, I'd really like to have the new 35mm 1.8 DX, but no one in Bangalore seems to have it. Is there anyone travelling from the US/EU in the near future who can carry it for me? I can transfer money via Paypal or have it directly shipped to your address and cover any customs charges.
