pentacon six - mr big

pentacon six - mr big by edwardolive edward olive.
mr big - in focus but happy with my framing - taken outside one of his nightclubs where my housemate - out of focus - works as door muscle. i have to say this is one of my recent photos i like best.

the 120 euros i spent on this camera and lens was one of the best purchases i have ever made. when you think what it would buy you in compact digitals. if i only got this photo i would be happy.

this is the pentacon six with carl zeiss 80mm (ie normal 50mm lens for medium format)

it reminded me of those dark japanese gangster films from the direcor whose name escapes me.

this one will no doubt be rescanned huge and going on the wall in my flat. i am going to urn our house into a gallery

very neo-noir and cinematic. like Snatch or Seven or something, maybe those Japanese gangster flicks you mentioned. Kitano (Beat) Takeshi?

very interesting proceptive, you have this narrative going in this photo I really dig. Good use of dof which solidates the subject's importance as a figure, hey, he is "Mr. Big". Oh yeah, nice tungsten saturated value. kudos.

This photo makes me want to know all about the man holding the cigarette. Does that seem strange? Anyway, this is fantastic.

This is stunningly beautiful. The framing and composition is wonderful, and the depth of field is lovely. The colour may be what I like best, though, it really is quite something.

I've just bought a pentacon myself, and can't wait to try it out, and frankly if I can take photos approaching 1/100th this good with it, I'll be extremely happy.
