Obelisk

...Bombo Point.

Chamonix 045F1, Gundlach Radar Extreme W.A. Anastigmat f16 6.5"x8.5", TMax400, Xtol(1.3)+RO9(1.160)
This is one of the best for a B&W challenge but the wonderful stone work ( I think) should put a bit more light in the shadow!??

@maggiemae @maggiemae I am happy with the strong contrast between light and shade, as the details in the shadows are still visible. Adding light to shadows is easily overdone. I like to make only minimal adjustments and get it right in the camera on the film by correctly exposing. For me, the beauty here is in the pattern of blocks with the obelisk rising and the abstractness of the shadows against the highlights created by the sun which gives its own pattern.

This is wonderful, I love the contrast you have here. Do you use filters at all?

@spanner I haven't used filters and rarely do
