Hong Kong 2013 - In Tilt/Shift

Thanks all. Much appreciated, only a small few left to finish.

I know some of you are not keen with some of the effects from this lens but I found this exercise extremely useful in many ways. More than just learning how to use this 45mm. The TS lens also taught me a few things in return, it taught me how to see a scene in more than 2 dimension. It taught me the 45mm focal length. It taught me how to shoot manual. It confirmed to me keeping the 5Dii was the correct decision.

With the 45 I can now get something different than all my other lenses, it offers something different and different is always good. The TS effect does not need to be used all the time but the choice is there if the scene works and I want to learn all the time and this is learning by doing.

115 is powerful, what happened there did the person fall over or was he sleeping, begging etc?

Those are beggars. Unlike the UK, the people that are on the streets begging in HK are often amputees or with massive disfigurement. The beggars would get into a position and just lay there for hours. Rumours are that these people own the local triads money and they cannot pay them back and that is their punishment and subsequently continue to work for them by begging not he street.

Some good shots.

Im guessing you are back from holiday there or are you still there and using a laptop to PP and post them?

I am back now but have a few to finish. I did most of them whilst on location.
