A few shots of London in BW. All taken with a 50mm f/1.8 with a Canon 5D







Thanks for looking...

Welcome to the Camel! You are off and running and I like the 1st shot. The 2nd has mood but too much black space for my taste. 3rd the lens distortion makes it look like the building is leaning back but great architecture.

Thanks Padre... Hmm.. You noticed the third one isn't level, hadn't spotted that before. I'd be mighty surprised if the 500mm had distortion like that on a FF camera. I'm enjoying BW work now that I've found a method that I'm happy with.

Love the contrastiness of #1. cool building. neat comp.
#2 is a nice idea but I am not sure that I like it that dark.
#3 is a nice shot but the fram looks tilted (as padre said)

Many thanks for the comments again. I really must straighten that one up. The second one I wanted fairly dark, wanted it to look like wartime London, maybe I should lighten it a bit...
