Construction site.   I am usually driving so miss seeing many things  (Goa drivers means paying full attention to what is happening ) .  I was a passenger so had Sony a7iii, Tamron 28-75 f2.8 set up for shooting from the moving car.  Not what I usually shoot  ;) .

NikFusion, lovely layers with 828.  Would make a fine print!

Wonderful tease for the eye. Apparent confusion os textures, shapes and direction that actually makes perfect sense  :)

A B&W version of the minimalist image (trimmed slightly differently).

During the 2019 NG Meet-up in The Haguge, Netherlands, we visited Vivek Iyer and his charming wife. During the pleasant visit he gave me a monochrome-converted NEX-5N.

I have used it mainly with an IR filter for IR b/w. One lens that makes the camera small (it is already tiny, but a big lens would change its appearance) is the vintage 3.5cm f/1.8 W-Nikkor for the Nikon rangefinder line. The W-Nikkor is very sharp and matches well the NEX-5N. It also has no hot spots in IR.

From Oslo today. ARW file run through Mono2DNG, then tweaked in Photoshop. Focus is not perfect as the focus peaking on this Sony isn't very good. But it is OK enough.

Thank you, Tristin!  I would need to print quite large then.

John, BW for #837 really puts emphasis on the very pleasant and well composed vertical elements.  Gives a lot to appreciate in combination with the subject.

Excellent image, John. I like both b&w and color versions, I have no favourite.
