Love the shot of the mountain, Kryss. Did you run out and take it when you learned the lens was a Tessar design?
If so, you live in a beautiful area.

uddhava...Where I live in Calgary Alberta are the Canadian Rockies and these were taken 2 weeks ago all with the Industar.




The haze is from forest fires over the border in Washington State USA.

Lars,

You have in the first pic 3 light sources, 2 artificial (home, lightning pot) and the sun, and all 3 just matches for it's kelvin degree, or for my "plausible factor". In general, with this light setup, I frequently adjust for one source, and ruin the others, but for that pic it just works, flawlessly,

Cheers,

Renato


That was very clever observed because I have adjusted the kelvin slightly on the light sources to match better Wink

Love the architecture pics!

It just struck me, there are some many nice historical buildings in Europe, but still very few on the forum who take architectural shots, why?
