Series of pipes

[Hamish Gill]

first and foremost, i do not condone the actions policies or ideals of the bnp... now thats out the way

secondly... this is personal work... not wedding work... horah for me

photos taken with panasonic gf1 with modified russian lens .. i like it because it makes the the photos less sharp without being out of focus... dont ask me why i like that, i just do

i have used my own interpretation of this bleach by pass thing

this is the only one i like... but as the others were taken in the same place i figured id post them too

so what do we think?

First let me ditto Hamish. I do not condone the actions, policies or ideals of the bnp.


I like these. The second and third keep pulling me back. They all have nice tones but these two have that little extra. I like the perspective in the second, the wall and diamond adds a place to wander over after the pipe. The third has that great texture on the concrete making it much more interesting then the bnp graffiti it's such a shame that the bnp graffiti is there and so prominent, pity it wasn't something else. Although in a perverse way it makes it more gritty.

Nice shots Hamish. I absolutely agree with Vic and was just scrolling down to say it was 2 and 3 for me. And for much the same reasons.

Pipes, graffiti, urban deay. All you need now is a few cables!!

Well, I'm glad I posted them as a series, my favourite is the first one by a good margin.
Can I ask, is there a verdict on the lens choice, can anyone see the effect of using a crappy lens, or does it just look like post process?
