Out of date film in the park

[Hamish Gill]

What film Hamish? How old?

I like 'em all but especially #2. There is something romantic about that image and I like how your eye follows the tree down to the cathedral and then to Hannah. Very nice indeed.

I like all 3 Hamish but for different reasons. I certainly agree with Brian's comment on number 2, especially the way she is looking back at you. There there is the humour in Number 1. And fantastic movement in the last one. I bet that would work well in contrasty B&W.

 

[Hamish Gill]

Cheers Brian!

Now your asking ... Ill have to dig out the negs, no idea how out of date it would have been though ... it was a one of a few rolls that Milan gave me when he came round here and bought my d300 off me... I dont think he knew how old they were, so i certainly didnt!

 

[Hamish Gill]

Right on Pete!

 

[Pete Askew]

Now that's a photo and half!!

 

[Pete Askew]

Isn't it funny how it seems faster now.

 

[Hamish Gill]

Tis odd that eh... I wonder why that is...

 

[Dan Cattermole]

WOOOOWW!!! Another great set Hamish! They're all fantastic!!
And that B&W conversion ........ [sigh] just the mutts nuts!! The dogs dinner!!
Great suggestion pete, great shot Hamish!
Very impressed with this thread

 

[Pete Askew]

My huess is that it is because the bands of green tones were just that, green. But in B&W we see very distinct tones and as they form semi-horizontal bands they get interpretted as speed. They are in the colour version but they are just not as conspicuous.

This and the BBQ thread make me really crave a bit of summer ... I think I get SAD somtimes... I bloody hate the winter, especially January!

 

[Pete Askew]

Think of all those nice, photogenic long shadows though!!

 

[Hamish Gill]

Yeah for the 3 minutes of day light ...
I'd be crap on Finland wouldn't I!
Gonna retire somewhere hot I think ....

 

[Chris Dodkin]

More tree shots Hamish - you've been holding back on us!

Like 1 and 2 colour and 3 B&W - good call Pete

Great low perspective on 1 'n 2 BTW

 

[Darren Bradley]

Great mood conveyed in all three, Hamish. I especially like the one where she's looking back.

 

[Hamish Gill]

Cheers both
Welcome back Darren!
