Wonderful idea that has been well presented - so what if one stretched it a bit!

Excellent shots John and good links, they all work superbly well in mono and I like the high-ish contrast

Stunning is the word, brilliantly executed.
Now John, having sent more than one lens to my home, I am surprised you did not comment on my address.......

The idea is great and so are the images. I am liking the way you have not been tempted to make them too light. Dark is perfect,
Best regards, John

What he said. I noticed the darkness but it certainly works here, so sharp too.

Thanks for all the comments - I've always shot with the GR series at -0.3 or -0.7 exposure compensation to ensure I don't lose highlight detail, and the dark feeling in these interior shots reflect how it looked/felt to my eyes.
@lesjacksons, looks like you're still auditioning for the comedy club - don't give up the day job
@pschlute - I thought you were more observant Peter, I took these at your house while you were out with your camera
I can't take too much credit - the Ricoh GRIII is a truly superb little camera, I spend time composing the scenes but rely very much on the depth created by the wide lens and then make a few tweaks in PP. I'm not as keen on the shooting experience as I am with a DSLR, but for speed, weight and size plus a high keeper rate of good quality images it's a great addition.

So so impressed with the room pics.
I rarely ever see such delicate tones in mono photography. This set delivers and so much more.

I agree with all that has been said, a cracking set and a well thought out topic.

Definitely. Lovely work, John.
Be well, stay safe, but most of all, invest in memories
