Shot this one last year with that cheap Kodak B&W that develops in color chemicals. That roll turned out well. This was about ten minutes before sunset. It was a fairly long exposure, as you can tell from the burst of the sun. Long for a direct shot into the sun, that is.
Minolta Maxxum 7000 Kodak C-41 B&W 1/250 f-22 Shutter Priority I think I used the Sigma 35-135mm zoom lens
Now, regarding yesterday's photo. My new van is a Toyota Sienna -- seats eight, just in case. The headlight is filthy now. I live on a dirt road and deep in the woods. The dust, birds, and tree pollen covers my van (not too many garages in the south here in America). I washed the van every weekend down at the carwash last summer. It would get so dirty by time I drove home up the road and driveway, I quite that after two months. Just a waste of my time. I still keep the inside cleaned out weekly, the kids make a mess every time they get in.
love this tone of the light...the bright morning sunshine
Lovely sunset shot, the long exposure has given it a great look.
I love natures photo like this especially use to B&W film work.
Nice ! :)
Interesting! There two shots in one, the horizon seems to be dividing the photograph into two halves, and each of these halves would make amazing 'stand alones'. Very simple, yet so very elegant. Me likes!
Oh, and thanks for adding my blog to your list. I hope I can live up to your expectations.
lovely, I don't often see a sunset/rise in B/W so this made a really nice change!
Great shot. I really like the long exposure effect on the sun, it worked out well.
Cool shot, great composition.
Very nice! You don't normally see black and white sunset photos, but this works very well!
First time I see a sunset photo in B&W, I would never expect it would look so nice, beautiful :)
Tena koe ehoa
Very isolated moody feel in what looks like a sombre and solitary place.
I like this micki! Really pretty use of the black and white for a scene usually shot in color.
It has caught a beautiful moment, the ByN has left brilliant.
Very nice. Unexpected radiance for a B&W of a sunset.
Nice shot. Very peaceful.
Gorgeous shot. Simple and effective.
Nce silhouette, nice reflection, nice B&W, nice tone and hues!
I did not know a sunset would look this beautiful in b&w..
It's very nice to see a sunset in BW and this is really quite nice. Good one.
This image has a great composition, the sharpness in the foreground balances the vignette type effect of the sky. I also think the star effect of the sun is real good too.
this is really nice. just goes to show that it's more about the photographer than the equipment, huh? the composition on this is what really makes it work for me, and i love it in b&w!
thanks for the recent comments on my site. This picture is wonderful. Such gorgeous light.
PERFECT!
Wow!!! it's really beautiful in B&W!!! it looks like some kind of dream!!! I love it!!
