Love 7 and 8. And its still your fault. Though the 15 speaks to me I think, it keeps saying it wants to go out. It told me earlier to buy its older cousin, the FA43. I obey.

I must say I'm enjoying all of the snowy pics. I had a browse through the last few weeks worth yesterday when Sydney was enduring a record heatwave. (5 days > 35C) and 42C on Saturday.

Here's a few from a (sweaty) camping holiday in Nth Queenland taken just after the floods .... but before the cyclone.

BTW Jay, I like your old decaying car series better than..... "someone else" who has a thing for urban decay and old cars.... and arguments in forums.

My favourites are #7, #1 and #2

Resized with only mild usm sharpening, otherwise this one is straight out of the camera. I was using RAW+ that day and I liked some of the jpegs better than my processed PEFs.

A few from yesterday. These were kinda underexposed but it was so low-contrast that fill light/recovery were useless, since practically the entire image was one big spike on the histogram; I doubt I've seen the final copies of these just yet.

What's funny is the first and last shots here were taken at the beginning and end of my walk respectively; I didn't notice till PPing that they were so similar

This is a blend of two exposures, one 5 seconds the other 25, both f/16

So many great photos in this thread.......

Hadn't taken the 15 out for a while, this morning in the new snow reminded me of why I love it.

Though I shot that night with my Vivitar 28 and Helios 44, I did pull the 15 Ltd out of the bag for just a single shot:

Golden Gate

Nice. Is that Baker Beach?

I'll add another Lake Tahoe sunset:

The Forest Service was doing some "prescribed burns" around the lake, so there was a bit of smoke in the air to contribute to the colors. Nonetheless, I'll cop to bumping up the saturation just a bit more . . .

mikeSF · 02-08-2011, 05:26 PM

yes, Baker Beach.

kyteflyer · 02-08-2011, 11:12 PM

amazing waterfall!

The city of Perth - not long after the sun went down. The K-5s dynamic range really let me push the sky up from black
