Title: Hollywood, October Morning, Stylized.
Post by: Mjollnir on October 04, 2015, 01:12:37 pm

I shot a series of this pool several years ago, somewhat stylized and abstracted, in early August.  Thought I'd go with another one, this time in different light (It's October), with the same beloved Pan/Leica 25mm, all shot at 5.6, no ND filter, and different body (GH4 as opposed to a GH2)

Haven't been on many landscape trips for a bit due to work, but that's about to change again, so until I'm out on the road again, I'm trying to stay sharp by shooting what's around me.

My building is oriented almost due west/east, with a roof juuuust high enough to throw around some really interesting light and shadow.

Love that second image. The play of cool colors and saturated warms is delightful/

Ha!  Thanks!  I actually had someone tell me that the peach color was 'jarring', although it's the natural color of the sunlight coming off the building.
