Today’s post is another shot from the East Mill, and it’s incredible old machinery. Now overall, I’d say that about 90% of the time I’m very content with the widest end of my wide angle lens, but for this shoot I was definitely in the other 10%. All of the equipment here is located in a relatively tight space, and there is limited room to just back up to try and get in what I wanted in a single frame. While I’m certainly pleased with how this turned out, I wish I could’ve gone wider to really capture this beast the way I wanted to. My next gear upgrade will definitely be an ultra-wide angle lens, but for now, my trusty 18-70 will certainly suffice.
Camera settings: ISO 200, f/11, 18mm, 3 brackets
Cool shot Steven. Great tones and I actually like the tighter composition
Really well framed here Steve. Nice details and choice on the B&W as well.
This is a great shot, Steven. The tight framing work very well on this. Great processing too. I think going B&W was a great choice.
I don’t know how big these wheels really are but I love how massive they look in this frame! Way to go Steven!
Oh man, you should buy a weide angle!! Want to buy a 10-24mm?? 🙂 Love the shot- black and white is really the only way I would have processed this.
This is very cool Steven. I actually agree with the otehr comments. I like the tight shot. It makes those wheels look foreboding.
A+ for compelling symmetry!
Really nice composition, Steven. The b&w is perfect for this shot.
Very cool Steven! Love the detail and the B&W here! Great work!
I like the tight composition here, Steven. B&W suits this – the contrast is well handled.
