An untitled abstract...
Lens: smc-DA 21mm F3.2 Limited Camera: K20D Photo Location: London, UK ISO: 160 Shutter Speed: 1/750s Aperture: F5.6

I spotted this design on a steel plate on a wall in Shoreditch, London. The 21mm Limited lens I used for this certainly gave me great definition and sharpness, as well as its close-focusing ability.

Thanks.

Yeah, there is a lot of detail in this making me consider printing it up big, for the wall.

This is great! How did you take this photo? Were you standing basically perpendicular to the wall (it looks straight on to me)?

Thanks jct, thanks Jan.

jct, yeah the small steel panel (28"x18" approx.), was bolted down on a brick wall at head high, and it was taken straight on.

Jan, this lens is bloody superb, as you say. The detail that it produced in this image is astounding. I really reccommend this lens to anyone, it is so practical too.

I really like this! The texture looks great and the color is just enough to make it look excellent.

Coherence from chaos. I see two people talking. How shall we carry on and put this world back together again. Reminds me of some of the disjointed figures in Picasso. Well seen.
