LOVED IT!!! Congratulations!!!


John Segon-Fisher   {K:2580} 5/19/2007
Thank you Leo. This is part of an autobiographical set on overcoming depression for which I have battled all of my life. But thanks to some fine people and their patience and help I am starting to find myself some peace. Besides being home is better than in hospital. So! I feel I owe it to those who have invested so much in me, to give something back. So, if my appearances and comments on UF appear somewhat "erratic" you at least know why. PS. Not all the photos will be bleak, particularly as I get better.
regards John and thanks for your constant support.

PS: I love my new Leicas (M7 and M8 and the Leica lenses) I purchased - they are ideal for my purposes. Even though they look like toys, simply magnificent cameras and glass!

You are always welcome John, and I think you are starting a wonderful series. By other side, the Leica M7 is my dream... hehe
Take care,
Leo

filipe franco   {K:716} 5/19/2007
Good BW shot and lovely framing!


Ramy Hammad   {K:206} 5/19/2007
very nice photo and lovely room....
really i like it


Shelby Shumate   {K:10750} 5/19/2007
Hmm, it doesn't seem very much like 1:00a, but I really like it. I can identify with what it can do also. It can be quite challenging. I like the as is feel to this. That nothing was moved or arranged for it. Just a "this is how I feel" photo. Thank you for sharing.

1.00am weird... as Shelby says it doesn't look like it... wonderful image John love the tones in this an M8 eh.. wow that one has to be on my one of these days lists... Love your perspective here of looking towards the light well seen and shot. Let me know if you are interested in an entryform for the Muswellbrook Photographic award

You are right about the time Shelby. I just checked the DNG exif data and I was off by about an hour. The details are:
16mm (Leica lens)
Leica M8
Aperture F4
Exposure 16 seconds
ISO 160
Time: 12:04:55 AM!

The light source through the window is from a small garden light. In Australia at just after midnight, it is actually quite dark.
PS: What benefit have I to gain in providing misleading information.


John Segon-Fisher   {K:2580} 5/19/2007
So happy you like it Larry - I just took a WYSISYG shot.

Cheers

John


John Segon-Fisher   {K:2580} 5/19/2007
Thanks Filipe
I used the corner of the bedroom hopefully to add some drama.


John Segon-Fisher   {K:2580} 5/19/2007
Thanks Roger, as I wrote to Shelby, I was out by an hour. I just checked the DNG exif data and I was off by about an hour. As for the effect, in addition to 16mm lens, I used the corner of the room. The details are:
16mm (Leica lens)
Leica M8
Aperture F4
Exposure 16 seconds
ISO 160
Time: 12:04:55 AM! (it was dark)

The light source is coming from a small garden light.

As for an entry form for the Muswellbrook Photographic award, that would be very nice indeed, thank you very much.

Cheers John
