A picture
« on: May 11, 2008, 10:20:56 PM »
Sorry, can't think of another heading. Anyway, here is an image that caught my eye while wandering the streets of Edinburgh last November.The first one was taken with a Nikon digital slr. I went back a couple of weeks ago as I wanted a version on a negative. I aimed the rollei prego point and shoot as close as I could get (much closer that the slr) and took this. I've just compared the two and the Prego/HP5 image is astonishing in comparison. It oozes detail and texture. No adjustments apart from a slight crop. If you read my earlier thread on point and shoots you'll know it cost me just over a five pounds. I put the 2 up against each other on the screen and could only  :D

Karl - a wonderful textural study, and one up for the Film posse :)
