Hi Pentaxians Last week I used some spare time for a stroll in the old city part of Zurich with the K10D and the Pentax A24mm when I saw a bottle of Single malt Scottish Whisky labeled "Jungfrau" (a famous Swiss mountain) In a small shopping window so I had to stop.
Just when I tried to get a shot trough the window with a polfilter attached the owner came out of the shop asking what I was doing. She said: If you really want to take photographs of my Whisky bottles you have to see my cellar. She lead me to one of the oldest cellars in Zurich with over 200 different and very fine & old & limited bottles of Scottish single malt whisky and even gave me 2 different sips to taste. What a pleasant surprise! She asked if I would come to take photographs at events too. Sadly she moves her shop next week so I have no more opportunity to take photos with a tripod or to try some HDR exposure combinations because of the very high contrast there in this historic place. Anyway, the pictures are far from perfect but the story is! All taken with the A24mm handheld in very low light (sadly) 2 sips of Whisky for the photographer: http:/www.m,ypage.bluewin.ch/solicom/whisky1.jpg The cellar: http:/www.m,ypage.bluewin.ch/solicom/whisky2.jpg http:/www.m,ypage.bluewin.ch/solicom/whisky3.jpg I hope you enjoy my little adventure.
