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!<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n
