KUM, The second one is my favorite image thus far this year. (I like the first one too!)

  …the second one looks like a silver print– very rich low notes. Bravo.

  And the year is not advanced jet … thanks John. Silver efex pro deserves the special merit of giving me the rich tones. Greetings – KUM

    I’d love to see it printed.

      I didn’t print anything so far. I even don’t have a printer … The shop-prints are just so so.

        can you find an Epson R1900 used?
        not too expensive…

        Hm. Do you recommend it? Well, I’ll try to find one. I trust your vote!

        A much better choice would be the PRO 3880…a 17″ B&W printer. They periodically have them at the Epson store (US) refurbished for about $800-$1000, although you can possibly find one for less on eBay.
        
        That’s the printer I use.
        
        let me know if you have any questions–workflow–whatever…

        Thanks for your advice and offer to help me, John. Someone said a photograph has to be printed to gain it’s beauty. Would beam me back into old darkroom days with tons of prints in various boxes 😉

        I’m from that century too. 😉
        
        To me, a digital file is only the score. The print is the actual music.
        
        You’ve got enough images for a serious gallery show already.

  Thanks a lot. May be “dead and alive” is the better title for this set …

Well done – the woman and girl reflected in the second photo are wonderful.

  Thanks Bluebrightly. I had to wait a while until they came in. But it was worth it.

  Die Belohnung für einen längeren Spaziergang durch die Stadt.

I’m not quite sure what these two photos are saying but they’re intriguing to say the least.

  Absolutely. It was quit surprising to see this in a shop window although it wasn’t clear what kind of shop it had been.

Da verkauft jemand wohl Jagdtrophäen. Es bleibt nur zu hoffen, daß der Schädel in der Mitte einfach eine Irrung des Dekorateurs war….
Das Spiegelbild passt hervorragend, wie zwei erstarrte Säulen stehen die beiden da, fast ehrfürchtig, haben wohl ähnliche Gedanken, der nächste Spaziergang im Wald wird wohl abgesagt…
LG kiki

  Ich fürchte eher, dass die beiden sich einen Spaziergang übern nächsten Friedhof verkneifen werden …

  Thanks Carlos. I was attracted by the skull of course. But the clouds made me think about composition an balance of picture elements too.

Gutes Bild, …. nur was die Menschen bewegt, die ein Schaufenster so dekorieren, das möchte ich mal gerne wissen.

  Ich weiß auch nicht genau, wozu diese Dekoration dienen sollte. Es war ja auch eine Telefonnummer auf die Scheibe geklebt. Vielleicht das etwas andere Bestattungsunternehmen? Der Laden, zu dem das Schaufenster gehört, hatte geschlossen.

Love both of these, but the second shot is superb.

  I’m glad you say so! It’s the result of a long walk. In the end I found this place. the decoration is gone by now…

  Und diesmal sind sie auch am selben Ort zur selben Zeit entstanden. Freut mich, dass du dich so dafür begeistern kannst! Gruß – KUM
