Greetings everyone! I'm looking forward to share my snaps here with all of you and hear your opinions. This is my mom taking off for a service in a village in northeast Slovakia. I think it was the first snow to show up that year. She couldn't be deterred lol.

Let's make a gallery!

I have short bursts of dwelling on specific techniques to make things more interesting when I'm on the street and, after being prompted with an online tutorial by Alan Schaller, I'm now having a go at more Negative Space images. I was loitering under the walled arch of the local Abbey on Monday, where I would normally capture silhouettes through the gated entrance, when I saw this illuminated stone window frame throwing a bold shape onto the side wall. It's a very time-dependent composition with the orientation of the wall and the high sun, which I hadn't seen before. Using my standard street settings of 1/500sec, F8 and Auto ISO (@280), I dialed in -2EV (a setting I don't use very often) and captured this image after a couple of missed shots to get the timing correct for a centred person. Had to darken the lower right corner a bit because of the light coming in from the side to balance the image but otherwise I got the stark NS look that I wanted. I'm interested to see if others in this community try this technique ...
