Rough Gems

A street photography set attempting to capture the beauty of the fairer sex without an emphasis on technical image quality. These are some 'rough gems' which would usually go unnoticed amongst better quality photos.

London Street Daily (27/11/2011)

Almost pay day, which means more money blown on photo gear... well for me anyway.
I must get out and get some night shots on high speed film of the crowds on Oxford Street. Until then enjoy the following shots.

London Street Daily (23/11/2011)

It's getting darker earlier, limiting my opportunities to go out and shoot. I have however been accumulating gear from ebay. Mostly manual focus Nikon lenses for my Nikon FM3A. I've also ordered a Nikon F to Canon EOS lens adapter with AF confirmation chip. This will hopefully allow me to use my new favourite lens, the Nikkor 50mm f/1.2 on my Canon 550D with the aid of red-dot focus confirmation. I'll post some samples when I have it.

Enough of the blah blah blah, here are some shots...

The Daily Commute Part 5

Picking up where I left off...
The fifth and final part of my series of photos on the London transport system.

Back to film...

Let's take a break from the London public transport as I'm sure you're as tired as I am of that daily commute of mine.


Here are some shots with my new Nikon FM3A
