I'm not generally a fan of heavily crushed blacks, but this is *very* nice work. The pictures are very strong and don't rely on the style. And the new tonality has been applied very tastefully - it makes those clouds look romantic and fascinating. There are probably fangirls who would run a kickstarter to see you shoot Bennedict Cumberbatch and Dr Watson this way...
(Not that I want to stereotype you - ok, I am about to - but do you shoot a Fuji? It normally goes with this processing style. Along with the fixie, the waxed moustache and collection of artisan cheeses...)
Thank you, David! Really appreciate the comments! Haha no I don't shoot Fuji, I shoot Canon and I like Cheddar :P The use of OCF on the day was essential to get the clouds exposed correctly as it was SO bright
It's a device for moving a Fuji X100 between locations. In fact, that's why the X100T was succeeded by the X100F - the F stands for fixie. It's a type of bicycle that's had its brakes and most of its gears removed to make it more authentic. Or as they say in the trade, it has been "curated."
You'd think they'd be even more more popular with Leica owners, but most of them are too old to ride a bike.
(Btw, I can say this because I own a Fuji and a Leica branded lens...)
