About In our youth concert last year, the interlude was filled by our performers playing their latest arrangements and compositions. I'm happy to have captured the singer's enthusiasm. This was when I was getting used to the very wide 21mm lens...

Wonderful emotion emanating from the singer! Did she sound as good as she looks?


Roger Williams   {K:84106} 12/4/2003
Yes, Craig. She was cute, happy, bubbling over with enthusiasm, and had a very pleasant voice. The arrangements of Christian songs were VERY original and some of them quite daring. It was a great concert... I think I'll put up a few more from this roll. This group mixed and remixed several of the tracks in their first CD at our church, so there's a strong link and they felt really at home.

roger, the full range of vocal emotions and the atmospher eof the music is in your picture. what i admire most though is the perfect management of the lines taken with a 21mm. very good.

best regards

Beautiful black and white shot Roger.Its a crowdy composition in a way and you did a good job with the wide lens.Perhaps I would have cropped the picture a little bit bec the singer'S one foot is missing but this is a minor detail.Overall it's a very good shot

Love the spontaneity. Bet you didn't have to "prowl around" for this one. The sharpness and tonal range are wonderful too. I haven't shot in B&W for a while though that's what I'm trying to do with my old Rolleicord right now. Not sure how and where I'll get the 120 negs. scanned though. 120 film scanners are beyond my reach, and commercial 120 scans may be hard to find and expensive as well. So I might just scan the prints on my flatbed.


Roger Williams   {K:84106} 12/5/2003
Amitava, a flatbed is all you need for MF negatives, provided you have the transparency adapter. Epson make one for each of their flatbeds. It's all I have for scanning my panorama negatives (no shop will even look at them).

Hakan, thank you--I could have done without those chairs in the front, there, but on the whole I think it was a lucky shot.

Charlie--the 21mm lens was quite hard to get used to. I had to get a spirit/bubble level, as even a degree or so is disastrous. But once I got used to it, I really loved it and it's my most used lens these days.

I like this one very much... the thumbnail toke my attention... pity for the chairs in the left and the cut of the feet of the singer... However nice expression and moment captured here... Nicely done!

XP2 and CV 4/21mm are obviously a powerful combo. And you know how to handle it !
It would be perfect if the singers left foot were visible but it's not a serious deficit this way. :-)

very good shot

Nice atmosphere to this one. I like the head (is it?) protruding from the bottom of the frame - just a hint for the viewer that there was audience present as well. You stood up, took the picture and sat back? Even if I'm wrong, I just love reading photos in my own way, and B/W pics like this one are just perfect for such reading :)
