Very nice arrangement of the curves and their shadows. Great eye, HiHo.

Thank You, Michael. I appreciate it. I had a tripod, but left it in the car when I realized I couldn't use the 'blad. It would be another hour plus each way to go reshoot.

Yes, great play of shape and shadow ! It looks quite sunny and your subject wasn't going to move. Why'd you expose @ 1/1,000 ? (unless your exposure index is about ASA 125, even for semi-stand dev.) ?

Thank you, JP & Peter.

This shot was outside with dramatic clouds clearing briefly - so it was very bright on a reflective (aluminum) surface. Another reason for high shutter speed has to do w/ the small format lens tending to be sharpest at about 5.6. So if I don't need great depth of field, I'll usually try to shoot at that aperture. With MF, they seem to like f11, 16, so I try to favor those apertures w/ the 'blad.

Speaks to me as very 1930's industrial where function combines with design - that hand rail is amazing and matches the hand wheel. Well done. - Bob

This is great. Very 3 dimensional. I almost can touch the wheel. Good job.

I'd say you had a fine day at the museum!

Its no joke DW that you & rmann lit the fuse - with a flamethrower. I'll go back, no doubt. I hope to see more of your work before I do. 'Have a few more, but don't want to be take too much space.
