To me anyway.......

Nice, move 6 inches to your left and you would have the flowers in full silhouette, and not on top of the vertical, even nicer then IMO.
It's the eyes not the kit.....

Incredible. And supports the whole idea that it's not the kit, it's the eye/ concept etc. I won't ask which gallery - it's more fun not to know! :lol: Totally agree ! Bought myself a Leica X1 compact in an effort to improve my shots . Most of my photos still look like they're taken by a chimp :oops...

Hi Chris
Not sure if you spotted this,can you do?

Nope, don't like 35mm SLRs much, i work better with rangefinders in small cameras, I do have three out of five Leica lenses for my two Epson RD1s ( the first digital RF, pre LEICA) which i would trade up to Leica M9s but theres the small matter of c GBP 10k for two bodies (at least i could keep my l...

Been photographing professionally for nearly 40 years so actually haven't been through much mostly use the tool for the job and what will give the right look and feel for what I'm shooting. Currently shooting 5x4 film on a Linhof kit (25 years old ) MF film on either a Hasselblad kit (20 years old) ...

Go buy a leica M2 with a 35mm f2,and 50 rolls of 100 Iso colour print film, shoot the lot and have devved, and scanned to disc ( cheap) find the 10 good pix out of 1800, eureka! Or buy an M9 for same cost, same discipline, or an M8 for about 50% of this lot. All comes to the same thing, photography ...
