I’m going to switch over to landscape for a few days.

Happy Father’s Day. All shots were taken by my wife with either the M240 or Monochrom.
We didn’t have much time to visit this lighthouse during our trip to Holland Michigan but I was able to take a few quick shots. It was around 4pm in the afternoon therefore the shadows were somewhat harsh. I used my Lee graduated filters which helped a lot.
ISO 200 1/180 sec f8 21mm (leica m typ 240, leica 21mm super-elmar, LR5 beta)
Here is the same image from yesterday but shot with the Leica M Monochrom. Honestly, I’m unsure which shot I like best? I think it really depends on my mood.
ISO 320 .5 sec f16 21mm (Leica M Monochrom, Leica 21mm super elmar, Lee seven5 filter set, Lee seven5 .6 graduated filter, Lee .6 solid filter, LR4, Nik Software, Define 2)
Continuing with the theme from a few days ago, here is another picture from Lake Erie (Huntington Park). This picture was again taken using the Lee seven5 filter system. What I like about this system is how compact it is (fits in my pocket) and allows me to shoot at any time (even mid-day). I also like the fact that I can see immediately on the viewfinder what the image looks like. The only other way to make images like this is to shoot HDR and you will not know how it will turn out until after you have layered the different exposures.
This first image was taken with my Leica M typ 240 and the image tomorrow will be from the Leica M Monochrom, taken in the exact side spot with the same filters.

I’m amazed how often people click on my blog because they are searching for information on Chicago’s “The Bean” (its real name is Cloud Gate). I’ve posted this image before in color but honestly have never been happy with the look of the sky. Here’s the picture in black and white. I think I’m finally happy with the sky and background.
