for Os(k)ar Becke(r) gravestone in monumental cemetery of Genova/Staglieno.
Different PP from an image taken with A7r and Zeiss-Contax Planar 85 mm. f/1.4, TA. Tripod, delayed shutter as my usual.
Please tell me your favourite solutions.
Thank you much and all the best,
Sandro

As you started with a good take, you end up
with something good too in these cases. As I
never discuss artistic intent and these are all
that, their all cool to me. Tasteful exercise.

Too much kind, thank you much!

1 and 5 for me. Both bring different things to the party, but I do like a gentle blue tint to mono, and the 'damage' to the image in 5 works well with the image content.

Thank you much for your evaluation.

The second one, for me: it seems to have more depth or 3D effect.

All are very nice but I think you'll find it comes down to only personal preference. For me it's number 1 because I like the light/dark contrast, but which do you like best?

 

[sarrasani]

thank you much to all. My favourites are 2 and ...5, but also 1. I see that the "as out of the camera" version is considered weak. Interesting.
All the best,
sandro

same here really. I am not a fan of these type of effects normally but in this case the age/damage works really well-very in keeping with the subject.
