Nice use of natural light in those last three. It looks like you went through the house looking for the light and shadows and not so much for interesting items to shoot. None of these look particularly wide, except maybe for the second one. I would have expected more of a wide angle feel from the DP0.

Agreed. They don't look extra wide. I do like how wide they are, though, and I'll try some landscapes later in the week, hopefully.
Yes, I was really just looking for light and shade.

They don't but they do look cinematic I think. I like this series very much. There's an implied narrative in them I find. I'm just not sure what it is. Just what I like!

That's the word, cinematic. It's the word they use on the Sigma website. I like the short series, and hope to expand on it over time. Thanks, Pete.

That's where he probably lent it from
, but I agree, it's a nice series. I especially look forward to the landscapes in colour mind you, with the Quattro 0 / 21mm and of course later on, the eventual pimples in portrait style.

I think they DO look wide. The wide look combined with the B&W and the light/shadow contrasts provide lots of interest to what might otherwise have been pretty mundane images. Nicely done, Rob.

Cheers, Brian. Appreciated.

After looking at them some more, I'll have to agree that they do look they were shot with a wide angle lens. I guess I thought a 21mm lens should have looked wider.

Wide enough, for sure.
I've noticed with my other cameras, when I click for lens correction in Lightroom, something happens at each end of the frame, a little straightening out. With this DP0Q, nothing happens at all. Just seems to be fine as is.

It did register...I'm biding my time, before letting leash a devastating critique of his best images! But don't tell him...
