@Tago-Mago I wish they did...new world vs. old world doesn't have a lot of similarities. Not saying that there isn't something beautiful in both, but I love the look of Lisbon and the colours used everywhere.

[goosehd]

@Jett129 ...and the answer to your question of where is the Tower of Belem and the Jeronimos Monastery both in Lisbon, PT.

[Jett129]

I thought you had mentioned that you would be going there,but one of the shots reminded me of a place in Venice. Looks awesome.

@Jett129 It was We stayed in an area called the Barrio Alto (historic area) and absolutely loved it there with lots to see and do. I also photo dumped from my iPhone in the Lisbon thread. It rained 4 days while we were there and I only took the Leica out the one day.

Should have taken it out more as even in the rain (sometimes pouring) the city was beautiful.

@goosehd What's interesting to me is the guitar player sitting there and the people walking down the stairs.I don't think the castle in the background etc. adds to it. Maybe you can try some alternate cropping when you get home. I'm a real big fan of less is more,but I'm guessing the background is a function of the 28mm lens.

@Jett129 Just got home yesterday and will try cropping some of them. The pictures posted are all unedited at this point. I have over 400 from the Leica and an easy thousand from the iPhone between the party and parts of Lisbon to work through.

Not knowing if we are going to make it back to Lisbon, I wanted to take a few to remember it...

@goosehd That was quick,exactly what I'm talking about. Now test it in B&W.

[goosehd]

@Jett129 ...this is fun

[alexxedge]

@goosehd the pop of color in the first frame is great!

[goosehd]

Edited picture of the guitarist from the other angle...

[Jett129]

@goosehd I just love the B&W. I test just about every image I edit,even some of the surfing pictures. It gives the image an entirely different vibe. I think European street photography lends itself to B&W. But the truth of the matter is you really,just,wanted to see if he was wearing Iron Hearts!

[Jett129]

Another example of selective color. As you can see anything that is red gets picked up. I think that using the selective color makes the image,slightly,more interesting.

The Annual Zombie Walk in Asbury Park,NJ.

First stop of the Japan trip was to this spot I’ve been dying to shoot. Shot with multiple cameras, just to make sure. Analog shot with Leica M5 and Cinestill 800t will have to wait until I process and scan, so here’s the one from my X100s.

[weftyarn]

love this shot @alexxedge
enjoy your trip and keep us posted on the nest sops please

Wish I was in Japan, but Munich Subway it is for me…

[Jett129]

@weftyarn No one loves your subway photography more than me,

[alexxedge]

@weftyarn I’ll definitely keep trying to post. I’ll fully post when I get back and get my film scanned. Here’s a couple from Kyoto and Mt. Fuji from the Shinkansen ride from Tokyo to Kyoto.
