Title: on the road ...
Post by: armando_m on August 22, 2016, 02:32:24

Sunday morning went for a drive , brought the V1 along with me, got to the town called Teuchitlan

A small river runs on the side

Armando, nice series.  I particularly like the old guy on the bridge but would have bet that it was a D800 image, big surprise and I am impressed with the  V1 image.
Many thanks for posting.
Tom

interesting road and images Armando. Mongo particularly likes #1 for the depth of colour and tone, perspective and tranquility. #4 is Mongo's second pick. These look to Mongo to have that D800 trait about them (if not, would love to know what camera). Nice work.

#4 is with a V1? sharp enough anyway for me to identify the weed in the river (Pistia stratiotes).

V1 images have a nice crisp yet slightly gritty feel about them. Perhaps not the ultimate choice for detailed landscape shots, but certainly plentiful for a lot else.

Tom, Mongo, Bjorn,

All images were taken with the V1 + 18.5mm f1.8 lens and developed in LR

#1 was also brought into PS to remove a bright blue boat

I guess an overcast day helps keep the dynamic range less wide , and the camera can capture colors better ?
 
#4 has some burning in the brightest areas

Thanks for the comments

Me too like the series, and yes - the man o the bridge rounds it nicely.

seems like you had a wonderful outing and lots to shoot. Bargain.

the V1 still delivers
