My first one, with the Sony DSC-V1, aging 5MP point and shoot:

That shadow looks like an evil doppelgänger

Nice catch.

Glad you are the judge

I especially like the first one.

Lovely scene. One I feel right at home in.

The problem is, I still don't know how I took this. The good point is, there's no need to convert to B&W

I have some ideas, I hope I'll have the right light to capture them.

Bart - evil doppleganger or a headless shadow, somewhat creepy as well.

Chuabasco, I really like the 3rd one you posted - especially with the pedestrians framed holding hands.

G.T. - very nice, nice old school film look to that pic, gives it a romantic feel.

G.T · 04-05-2011, 12:54 AM

Here comes another cloudy day.
I agree with Immunogirl, that's an awesome shot you made, Chubasco. I was hooked by the exactly same point.

Immunogirl and G.T, thanks, I like the lighting in that one. BTW, the girl in the first is
MaKenna, a friend's daughter, and nothing evil about her, lol:

not an entry, taken with a Petri 7s 35mm rangefinder, ISO 400 film

Indeed! Wonderful!

Perhaps it would be better to edit my first post to include the picture.
However, here's my second try:

Pentax Optio P80.
'cause shadow meant B&W to me... the morning's sunlight finished the job

Bart · 04-08-2011, 11:06 AM

Very nice. I like it, G.T

chubasco · 04-09-2011, 12:29 AM

Bart, thanks, and G.T, nice contrasty shot, like it. Here's my 3rd entry, unless I come
up with something I like better before contest closes:

Minolta AF-C 35mm point and shoot, Fuji 400, SEP conversion

G.T · 04-09-2011, 11:03 AM

Bart: thanks, but this one is rather a matter of luck.
Chubasco: another great shot.

I'm still hunting my third, I may wait 'till very close to the deadline or even not add a third photo.

I think that one will do...

Very appealing.
