Sunset - 夕暮
Nelson, New Zealand
Nikon D800
Ai-S Nikkor 135mm F2.8
F8, 1/100, ISO-100
Playing with new gear and I'm still leaning but I already have great feel. Yes, I'm in transition period to "Full Frame" except... I'm keeping m43. ....and.... a 35mm film.
A several years of technology advance means the gear so much easy to handle and producing a great image a little bit easier. Well, I still believe gear is a tool and the one behind is the key factor. However, I have to admit new technology/gear helps a lot.
It handles old manual focus lens very well, focus is easy.
A process I've done here is nothing so special from what I have done in past. It has been warmed up a little on highlight and WB is on shade for start.

A B&W conversion has been applied and cropped a bit to 8x10 aspect, here is the originals scan. My priority at the time was to include the legs of the guy at the corner, he was coming straight toward to me at fist but detouring when he saw me shooting the making.
