WOW!!! This is amazing, i'll be very honest with you and say this is probably the best b&w work i have seen in a loooong while! =D I love the composition here, the details in the highlights, and even the lens flare! Is the Tokina a MF lens? Anyway.. instant :+fav: great subject matter and the fact that you had to be incognito about catching the shot is great. i really think that the low angle (i am assuming since you were hidding it) adds so much more to the perspective, this is really some top notch work!! Really breathtakting =D keep it up!

Thank you! =)

Tokina is a cool AF lens... it's full-metal and well it's the greatest lens you can get for that money. it's kinda tricky to use because of 2.8 but when you get used, it's really wonderful. Very sharp.

No, i wasnt hiding it.... the story was a bit different:
It was on Zurab Tsiretelli's exhibition

i was gonna take a picure, but as soon as i took out my cam, a security came and told me not to photo... and well they began waching me.

So i got out, hided in some corner, and waited for the exhibition to finish and then got out of my shelter and did my dirty job! Hell that was freakin scary! but i loved that! Fhoto extreme! try something like that some day! (and expect more prohibited-style exclusive photos from me =) )

So later when i tried to get out of there i had some problems, but i didn't care bbecause my mission was complete.... but that's another story. =)

This hardly looks like a photograph- the tone, the focus. It seems more like a painting. Very nice.
