A little stroll in the central park of the city to test the Canon EOS IX . APS expired Fuji Nexia 200 exposed as 125 ISO I used the EF 50mm 1.8 I for most of the frames . The first and the last ,Tamron 17-35 .Couldn't avoid flare on first one ,had no hood with me .Yet,in the viewfinder it looked better , on a diagonal display . Those gathered guys are mostly retired and unemployed people who use to get out there and play chess .

Very interesting subject, Teo. It would be worth approaching them and asking for a close up photo (promise to give them a print)

+1

The grain seems to work with the subject here.

When we last visited Barcelona, we did the touristy thing and had a good walk around La Sagrada Familia. To the East of the church, we found a little park where some people of "mature years" were playing a type of skittles/boules game and it was so fascinating we sat and enjoyed the atmosphere while they played.

Nice series, Teo, I like the frame size the APS provides, too.

Yes, I love it too . In fact , I started to crop like this (more or less ) before using this camera

I tried to approximate the aspect ratio in these but came up a little short in height. I
wanted to have the bridge surrounded in autumnal colors and cropped-out the reflected
blue sky at the bottom:


Samsung NX100 with 20-50 zoom

Yours go from 579 to 582 pixels in height, this is 525. In future will try for 581 pixels, average.

Looking forward to more, Teo!
