A new month so a change of lens - see below - and as this focal length is a classic for landscape shots, I'm starting with one of those.
This is for my PLAY project - you can read more about it in my profile - where I'll be using a different prime lens for each month of the year: for May it's the Sony 16mm f/2.8 on an APS-C sensor camera (today the Sony Nex-7) - the equivalent of a 24mm lens on a full-frame camera.
The shadow details are accentuated when viewed on black.
@judithdeacon I've hardly used this one - it's not got a good reputation for quality - but I'm going to use the month to decide if I want to spring a lot of wedge for the Fuji 16mm f/1.4. I'm coming to the conclusion that prime lenses are special in more ways than one☺
@yrhenwr Woods and trees are quite challenging to process in B&W if you don't want the end result to be just a muddle of similar tones... I have a lot of outtakes!
