Bottega Veneta – Not

bla
Prinzregentenstr., Munich

Update: I had already forgotten how much overexposure leeway the Sony sensors have – back in my A700 times, this was a constant source of astonishment already. So when I revisited the raw file of the picture above, I tried the highlight recovery and found that the blown out white shoes on the transparent indeed have a lot of detail. This is the new file now.

Public Transport Provider

Emmy-Noether-Str., Munich

Due to being a migrant worker – changing offices twice a week – I am allowed to embrace many picturing opportunities just when commuting, like here at the headquarters of Munich’s municipal utilities, who provide water, electricity, natural gas, district heating, disctrict cooling, and public transport through subways, tramways and buses.

Small Town Winter

This is one of the first images I took with a ~ 40 years old 50mm Pentax lens, all manual, on a Sony A7 body, which I bought used for a very reasonable price. Strange how you can feel so easily at home with a new camera, picturing in the same way I started in high school with a Spotmatic then. Now I am back again at manual focus, f-stop ring at the lens, but of course greatly supported by ISO and shutter speed automatics – and even after 12 years of DSLR and up to now mirrorless m43, it is not awkward at all. So the next month will see how I adapt to that back-to-the-roots technique, and how my old Pentax lenses from 24mm (this in fact is a Tokina) up to 200mm will fare.
