In the process of putting this blog back together using a new WordPress template I wanted to post some more image-heavy stuff to try out the new look, so what better excuse to pop on my shamefully underused 50mm f/1.8 Nikon lens and have a wander around my place of work. Much easier than trekking out somewhere exotic in London in the middle of the coldest winter in 30 years!
All these shots were made using the D700’s B&W mode, something I wouldn’t touch with a bargepole on other cameras but which works quite well on the D700 due to the options available for tweaking the tonality and the contrast. I personally prefer my B&W shots a little bit punchier than I was able to muster using those options so some of these have had their shadow and highlight levels tweaked in CS4, but otherwise as shot.
Enjoy!
