    Into the Light

    Just as painters play with new media or push familiar ones. What is wrong with that?

    Into the Dark

    Ah, hence the bars. I think the contrast works well, Gianluca. You really need to look into the shadows to understand what you are seeing and, given the context you have now added, that makes what is a strong image even more meaningful I think.

    Few shots from my recently acquired Leica IIf

    It works well and, as Beth has noted, you have captured a nice set of intimate-looking scenes too.

    Into the Dark

    A wonderful composition, Gianluca. The black sun is a great detail, especially positioned below that dark streak and is mirrored nice by that metal object in the window. I also really like the way the lighting has highlighted the branches of the tree again thr dark background.

    They do, and I like the blurred and ghostly figures very much.

    Geranium buds

    A nice shot, but a worrying situation. When I left the UK to come back to Potsdam for Xmas, the Paperwhite narcissi were flowering; normally that would be in March!

    Beautiful work, Tony and I can see why they’d be favourites. The Heron is a stunning wildlife portrait.

    Well I never! And so it is, and for both Max OS and iOS!

    It was the only computer game I ever enjoyed playing, but that was back in the 90s. I didn’t realise it was still going / available.

    Ladybird after the rain

    And a fine shot it is too, Sera. I like the tiny drops on the wing cases.

    Hi Everyone

    Welcome again to RPF, Sera. There’s nothing wrong with a phone as a camera, and they certainly out-perform many of the compact digital cameras floating around. :)

    Which focal length feels closest to how your eyes see the world?

    And it shows. Amazing work, Bill.

    What third party ‘fun’ primes can you think of for Nikon F mount?

    I think the Lensbaby series take some beating for fun.
