    This shot is breath stopping. I can feel the isolation looking at it. That's when you know it's art.

    Thanks everyone :-) Hope you all will have a great weekend!!

    Paul beefs: Thanks for your comment my friend :-). I was initially a bit hesitant about this shot as I think composition wise, this would suit a 35mm film more. However, I did want to upload a shot which has strong colour theme (in this case the strong green cast of RXP when exposed under fluorescent street lamps and then push processed) to match the last two shots I put up. I quite like the mood and the light in this one too.. :-) I really love silhouettes for some reason, I think it is because of the mysteriousness of it, or the fact that you can turn something 2D in a 3D world...

    Fei: Thanks Fei! The aperture was f2.8 and if I remember correctly, the shutter was either 1/15 or 1/8 of a second. This was Fujichrome Provia 400X [RXP] , pushed process by 2 stops. This film always give a green cast under fluorescent light when pushed, but under tungsten light it becomes warmer.... Check out my tags to see other photos shot using this film.

    *Zzj: Thanks bro! :-) My P6 is sitting lonelily in a corner of my room, and abandoned by its owner (ie. me) until either its replacement arrives from Slovakia or when it decides to behave... :-(
