A pic to share and a little story...

Hi guys...

Just like to share with u a little experience.

Few months ago i was driving on a busy afternoon where over my windscreen i saw this beautiful image i've been dreaming abt to capture.

I stopped the car on the roadside, illegally mind u. Grab my M3 and ran up the overhead bridge and snapped 10 shots bracketed as the lightning was vastly changing and i didnt have a meter.

I was glad i got this usable one, which I liked.

moral of the story? dun leave home without your leica ..

here it is..it may not be technically fine, but it was a shot i wanted for very long..

Seems to me the moral of this story is dun leave home without your #25 deep red. I wonder about what kind of mood would be imparted on your photo had you used an orange or red filter... ominous, foreboding, epic??? My imagination is fried after a night of binge drinking...

Travis, it's a nice shot but you should really go back after the restoration work has been completed - those scaffoldings don't really add to the image.

I agree with John. The cloud formations are the only thing that makes this image of more interest than a simple grabshot. A deep orange or red filter would add to that interest.
