Cry Baby is one of my late step-son's cats.  We're trying to find a new home for them all now.  Photo from yesterday, visiting with her and shooting at ISO 6400.  D3 with 28/2 AI lens used at ƒ/2.

Typical street scene downtown Oslo. People cross the street with little or no attention to pedestrian crossings, and the building are decorated with wrongly written labels. The Norwegian languages don't have any official standard for pronounciation, however we do have rules for writing. Which people apparently enjoy breaking all the time. Oh well. National idiosyncrasy.

IR b/w taken with the Nikkor 40mm f/2 on my modified Z5. This lens is quickly becoming a favourite for this kind of work, yet not by far the optically 'best' design. It just delivers pleasing images and what more could one ask for? Plus, no nasty hot spot in IR either, which is unfortunately a very uncommon situation for native Z lenses.

I noticed the Dano-Norwegian king giving the street its name became official king at the age of 11. Children rights weren't obviously protected in 1588:)

Perhaps attach the image so we all understand what you're up to these days, Paco?

Now there was an image. Apparently all those fancy denoising tools worked well?

I rarely used my D2X above ISO 400 in its heydays. Then it was a workhorse and brought home the bacon so to speak. Not much spare time for playing around with it.

I went today to visit my friend Yeyo, an artist and painter's teacher at his school. Big city building with various activities, including an exhibition with one of my pictures. Long story short, the lights went out. This head was set up for work but as the blackout happened, the light, very low, was nteresting, coming reflected from a far away window while the background was black. I took the chance to really push de camera, looking to get enough grain to make it look like pencil on a textured paper. The exposure was around iso H1 (1600?), f1.8, 1/50th. I had to increase contrast and deepen the blacks to tame the color noise, then black and white. Whatdoyouknow? I like it  ;D
Of course is open to discussion
