This post is coming to you live from 32,000 feet in the air. We landed safely in LAX after a 14 hour flight from Australia and even managed to get on an earlier flight back to Portland (bonus!).
If there is one part of Melbourne that truly stuck out for me, it was its laneways. Nicole and I got to explore some of the funkier and charismatic ones during our lovely Photowalk last week. These narrow alleys were brimming with amazing and creative wall art, posters, and bills that really brought life to what would otherwise be just another path in between streets.
For this image, I was experimenting with the Sony RX-1 to see how well is handles dynamic range in a single exposure. As you can see here, it did quite a remarkable job. However, after using this camera for 2.5 weeks, I do feel confident to say that it just isn’t for me. It really is a powerhouse but it’s probably better suited for a different sort of photographer. Still, it really was wonderful to be able to use the camera for this duration to really get a feel for it.
In terms of processing
All of the b&w and editing conversions were done using the Develop module of Lightroom 4.3.
Great shot.
Oh yeah!
Nice capture. So what sort of photographer is the camera for?
+Scott Starks I guess that's something that you'd have to figure out for yourself. I just know that it isn't for me.
Very nice..good depth
nice picture
Love my city and your image :)
You've made us look quite European. After more than a decade here I'm still finding groovy little spots to explore. Melbourne's a young city compared to the rest of the world but we do laneways and creativity really well. Lovely shot.
Beautifully shot +Brian Matiash. I'll have to pay closer attention to the laneways next time I am down there. It's a shame you both couldn't stay for the big photowalk next week.
THis looks like a dark and gritty scene from a video game! cool!
great!

A poster is any piece of printed paper designed to be attached to a wall or vertical surface. Typically posters include both textual and graphic elements, although a poster may be either wholly graphical or wholly text. Posters are designed to be both eye-catching and informative. Posters may be used for many purposes. They are a frequent tool of advertisers (particularly of events, musicians and films), propagandists, protestors and other groups trying to communicate a message. Posters are also used for reproductions of artwork, particularly famous works, and are generally low-cost compared to original artwork.”
