An alternative view of the scene in Aldous' shot. Obviously taken a few seconds before Aldous took his!

Leica M9 + 24mm Leica Summilux M f1:1.4. ISO 400, 1/60s at f1:2.8. PP in LR / Nik Color FX 4.

And, especially for @Aldous Lau, a mono version.

 

[Aldous Lau]

Pete did you process the B&W with Nik silver?

 

[Pete Askew]

I did. A recipe built around Titanium toning and Akcros film.

 

[Dan Cattermole]

I want to go to Hong Kong!

 

[Pete Askew]

Is Hong Kong ready for you though Dan?!

 

[Aldous Lau]

I want to go to Hong Kong!

Dan you are very welcome to come over any time.

 

[Dan Cattermole]

Is Hong Kong ready for you though Dan?!

Hong Kong ent seen nothing yet

 

[Dan Cattermole]

Dan you are very welcome to come over any time.

Many thanks.... Would love to sometime..... In the distant future, when I have money, kids are older, more time to myself etc.

 

[Beth Anthony]

excellent post processing, did you try any of the food?

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks Beth. No, we were rushing to catch the 19:35 ferry.

 

[Paul Lange]

Maybe PP Pete and DD Dan can go to Hong Kong for a weekend together, they are in love after all.

Very nice BTW and all together a great series, good to see you have such a productive trip.

 

[Pete Askew]

Er, I have a feeling I might be washing my hair that weekend.

Thanks Paul. There's more...

 

[Brian Moore]

I think I prefer the BW version on this one, Pete. It seems to fit the subject matter better for me somehow.

 

[Chris Dodkin]

I'll take a contrary position to mr Moore, and say that I prefer the color version - I like the warm lighting in the booth vs the cold light of the store on the left - nice contrast

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks both. I was in colour mode when I shot it and only produced the B&W version to go 'alongside' the version Aldous too with the Monochrome but I know what you mean Brian.
