The first is such a fabulous exposure.

Really nicely done, Andy. Love that contrasty look :) Was that in camera or with SEP later?

Great content and processing.

Thanks Sue

I always take images in colour and process them in Silver efex Pro 2 afterwards to get the best tones. I have yet to play with the B&W settings in the X100. No matter how good they may be it's always SEP that wins in the end!!

BTW... The last 2 were taken from the hip. I had to guess where to point and hoped that the camera shutter speed was fast enough to get sharp shots. The X100 did brilliantly, I had no idea what they would turn out like untill i had time later to take a look!!

Thanks Andy for this series of pictures. My fav. is last shot (#4).

First two are my faves. I'm still using Topaz as SEP is rather pricey!

Exactly. So good.

Nice work on the first two, I really like the first one.

Another great set Andy and No.4 is a great play on words as well - very well spotted!
