This is Hanif Khan, he is 91!

Maybe not this one, I quite like it in colour even though I prefer highpass-BW for such portraits, I think it's dependant on the face being shot though and the lighting ;o
 
Took one of the bog-standard Bristol shots today and was impressed by the sky - have done nothing to it - standard cam settings - tried to play with the sky and make it even more moody but as ever, lost detail of the building (Wills Memorial).

Oh actually, had I not fiddled with levels and curves and gone straight to the contrast slider, I would have found this earlier:

i was messing around in lightroom with a colour edit of the BW from the last page. I think its nicer than the BW (.... and should have been my vintage entry!) i think the shadow from her right hand needs desaturating a bit (its a bit pink) and the eyes pupils are a bit bright.. but thats for another day.

That's so cool. Loads of detail in this, and I suspect that even though it'd look good as a contrasty B&W, the colours in this make it that bit more special. The eyes are great too :)
 
Thanks :)

These days the 40D LCD doesn't compare so much to the newer bodies with higher pixel count displays so I wasn't as sure as to just how sharp it came out (especially as I didn't use the centre AF which is hit and miss sometimes on the 50 at 1.8 but you get to draw an idea after a while.

I took 4 shots with varying crops, this was the sharpest so was quite pleased with that!
 
Wicked views, imagine a landslide :O

Didn't cross my mind when I was there :p

It's Geevor Tin mine near Penzance if anyone's interested. Doing some uni work there, some parts of the land around there are heavily contaminated with arsenic.. up to 30% :eek:
