Hi Guys,

I wanted to share three more recent prints:

> "Trash Scourer"
> http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/150/f/5/trash_scourer_by_philosomatographer-d3hkxrv.jpg
> (OM-3Ti, 135mm @ f/3.5, Kodak TMY2-400)

I know the above is a very clichéd subject matter, but it's difficult  
to ignore here in South Africa,
and I like doing drive-by shooting, so I have ample opportunity (this  
was taken out of the car).

The Zuiko 135mm f/3.5 is an amazing amazing amazing little lens, I  
can't believe how pleasant it
renders. It resolves down to grain level in the very corners, i.e.  
it's perfect, even wide open.
It renders out fo focus backgrounds in a manner which I don't think  
even Moose can disagree with.
(though he's probably going to try... :-)

Only weakness is the single coating in contra-jour lighting, but if  
the light it right, it delivers.
I will soon post another couple of prints I've made via this lens,  
some of my favourites.


> "Moon over Bryanston"
> http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/150/f/8/moon_over_bryanston_by_philosomatographer-d3hkx19.jpg
> (OM-3Ti, 300mm @ f/4.5, Kodak TMY2-400)

I'm not too proud of this one in particular, but I have not done many  
moon / skyline shots on film
before, so this is at least one that worked out. I do like how the  
entire disc of the moon is subtly
visible, I did not think film would be sensitive enough to pick that  
up out of the surrounding night
sky.


> "Nightfall at the drinking pond"
> http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/150/e/0/nightfall_at_the_drinking_pond_by_philosomatographer-d3hkx77.jpg
> (OM-3Ti, 250mm @ f/2.0, Kodak TMY2-400)

A very quiet evening in the undergrowth of our little garden.


Lastly, I know it's off-topic in this forum, but I thought I'd share  
some of my large-format work
(this is my primary area of interest, the OM is just a walk-around  
camera because it's so small
and haptically addictive :-)

regards,
Dawid
