Little Woman, Big Camera
by davidstorm
Shot recently on London's South Bank with the K-x and DA L 55-300mm. I've deliberately processed this with higher than normal contrast as I thought it made the girl & camera leap out more from the background. This is one of my favourites from a recent trip with Larry Sovitch and his wife Marion. I might also upload the colour version if anyone likes this one.

Great hectic capture. I think the high contrast works for just the reasons you stated. Great.

Fellow with glasses isn't a Cannon fan?
And she obviously isn't thrilled with her last take.
Time to try a Pentax.

I agree, it's a great b/w she stands out perfectly from the background.

I love high contrast monos and this works a treat David.

Great capture, David. I like the high contrast and I think this shot works better in mono. I also like the expression of the figure behind her.
