Thanks to all who responded so far, your comments very much appreciated. It's only a simple pic, but I liked the fact this guy was close to the warmth. It wasn't cold in there, not by a long stretch. But he obviously liked it er sweaty.
My new year's resolution is to shoot more stills, and I do get into some strange places now and again, if i can show something unusual, that makes me happy. (If I can piss Peter Alling off that makes me happier still but there ya go ;-) One thing I would say is that I had forgotten how much fun rangefinders are. To me, totally different way of photographing. With an SLR I tend to stay glued to the finder, picking off as I will. With a RF, it stays down low, usually pre-focussed, only popping up moments before the frame is exposed, then swings down again, eyes scanning, anticipating the next shot. I appreciate some will work like this with an SLR (digital and film) but not with me. With the SLR, it tends to drop only an inch or two, eyes scanning, then pops up for some more picking off. The RF drops right down to waist level, almost like it's resting in camouflage. I can see that HCB has a lot to answer for! -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
