    Amazing shoot, sir. Brilliant photography and a model to match. The lady is simply stunning. Nikon F4 was actually first introduced in mid 1987. It was so advanced for the time that a lot of the usual ' reviewers ' couldn't deal with it and put it down. Nikon F4 was the blue print for almost every single SLR and later DSLR camera that came after it from Nikon or from other manufacturers. People say Nikon F was iconic or Nikon F3, but IMHO it is the F4 that is a true icon, since it inspired hundreds of other designs even to date. The Nikon 105 that you used is truly the jewel in the crown of the Nikon lenses designed for film photography. It is simply a stunning lens, right up there with the summicrons. Rumour has it that Steve McCurry shot his world famous portrait of the ' Afghan Girl ' in 1984, using a Nikon FM2, Kodachrome 64 and a Nikon 105mm F2.5 AI-S. When I look at the quality and colours that McCurry managed to produce from his set up using Kodachrome, it just makes me wonder why we all went digital? Be safe.

    Your videos are so good. Like someone filmed you and documented your day. I like the way you tell a story about people and your photo shootings. And I am envy how good the light always is with your photo shoots. It's like there is always good weather wir excellent lightning there :)

    She is not only gorgeous but a fantastic model, her possing is stop on and her confidence and ability to transmit emotions outstanding. Clearly, none of that talent and professionalism will not shine with an inspired photographer who knows its craft the other side of the lens.

    • @adventureStaley
      @adventureStaley  2 года назад +1

      Thank you very much for the kind words. I shot one full roll of Ektar. I think I showed all but one or two images. Many of these are not perfect, slightly missed focus or overexposed. I show my mistakes as well here, it's not just about the wins. It's a process. I also show all but a couple of the XA images. There were some close up shots that didn't really work with the wider angle. I'm glad you like this, there are 8 more videos coming in this series. Hang on.
