*** This Week Through Your Eyes 2023.11.04 ***

A camera that is always with you and good enough for most purposes! You are joking :)

This lovely shot has strong compositional echoes of your London work in B&W. Really like this shot.

I never really considered the phone camera sa something serious. It was OK to shoot stuff on site, take a picture of the gas meter of print cartridge to have a visual reminder of the numbers.

But my new iPhone 14 with 3 lenses is a pretty good picture taking machine. Yes, it does a lot of PP behind the scenes, but the longer lenses make it good for family snaps, and those casual shots of places you visit.

I am very tempted to do a street photography project with it, just to see how much I can get out of it.

Some street stuff from new camera. I finally bought a Q2. I know it is not completely rational but I did it, I have always wanted one. A mint second hand traveller's kit (a spare battery and Leica leather wrapping cloth) with more than a year's warranty. I paid £3200. When I consider I sold my X100V for £1450, it is reasonably "expensive" :) The noise is an issue for high ISOs but noise reduction works much better than mFT files.

This is pretty amazing. The figure in the shot adds to the loveliness of the shot.

Great shot, but lop off 15% on lhs ( imho).

Wow, get you with your fancy Leica! They are beautiful things. And if they inspire you to get out and take pics and give you a warm feeling then they're worth it. Especially if you can take shots like the last one. It's sensational.

That shot with those colours is worth the price of admission.

An excellent contrast!

I have previously faffed around with that TBH and was torn between cropping some off the left or leaving it alone to make the left seem more like a murky abyss. You may be right.

Great selection. My fave.

I like these two the best.

The interior lights in the center of the photo really add to this shot.

I would have cropped beyond the red life preserver in this shot. I commands too much attention from your leading line.

This is the clear star of this set.

"all that remains"

Walk in new development area, couple of weeks ago. It was quite cold and Thursday evening so not many people on the streets.

Oh, that red makes the shot!
