Wonderful, Sue. I especially like the combinations shadow/reflection.

My third entry, also MX-1.

Really inviting scene, Joe.
I would love to follow that trail.

I recently got the Oly EPL2 (like it a lot). i now have a vf3 (sold the vf2). since i only use it when i can't see the lcd in bright light it is working out very well. If you go for the vf3 you will have $s for another PnS.

The Q is a keeper as well as the samsung tl350

I considrered the Q10 but have dismissed it now for the same reasons as I'm returning the F770 tomorrow morning. I think I really want a VF that is built in to the camera, so I'm really down to the X-20. Its got a bigger sensor, and the VF is big and bright, has an info overlay as well as a focus indicator... all stuff you normally find in an EVF, but its an OVF (and TTL, like our SLR/DSLRs) and it zooms with the lens. I've pretty much decided I want that, its just a matter of whather I can justify retaining the XZ as well (mind you, it wont sell for much!)

Entries 1 and 2:

Light and Shadow, I was going to convert this to B&W but I think the Real-Life-Monochrome thing works here. Taken with Sony RX100, Aperture priority, 1/400s ISO 125 F/4.9, 37.1mm (100mm equivalent).

Goodbye, Jack. 1/100s f/2.0 ISO 125, Aperture priority again with Sony RX100. After leaving my floor jack out in the rain, I noticed this pattern of seed pods and leaves underneath that had been washed there by the water. It was a reminder to me that not all shadows are about blocking light.

Interesting take on 'Goodbye Jack', Erik.
"Light and Shadow", I find really good!

ivoire · 05-25-2013, 06:42 AM

There's still a few days left for shooters to come out of the dark and into the light to capture some shadows.

3rd entry - Panasonic FX500.

This month has been characterised by the absence of sunlight and hence natural shadows.

So, from the archives. Freshly converted though

Pentax Q with #01 prime. Taken before all the firmware updates. So it was tough to get the camera to focus. Now it would be a lock.
thanks
barondla

More nice entries! There's still time for additional pics

barondla, the result stands strong.

Dan, I especially like your 'Stranger'.
