Hallo Wolfgang,
dieses Flohmarktbild hat sehr viel Atmosphäre. Ein Sammelsurium an Trödel. Besonders gefallen mir die 'Alten Meister'.
Gruß aus dem Ruhrgebiet,
Roland

Hello Wolfgang.
This is beautiful black and white capture with vintage pieces captured so well in the frame. The light and contrast are just perfect in this balanced framing.
Kind regards.

Hello Wolfgang

Superb and it works well in B&W. I like the contrast between the machines and the paintings and the nude and JC.

Best wishes

Digby

Hello Wolfgang,

When I think is this a typewriter made through Mercedes, the car manufacturer, this is incredible, 45 year ago.
Wonderful scanned with a good sharpness and clarity.
Very well done, TFS.

Have a nice Sunday,
John.

Hello Wolfgang,
I was surprised to see that this is such an old photo. These items are really timeless and your photographic style of combining non-relating features is pretty much what you are doing even today. Well, a good style should also be timeless. That Mercedes typewriter is a true gem. Is it from THAT Mercedes company?
Kind regards,
Gert

Hi Wolfgang
Good closeup old photo from your dry box! Impressive olde stuff in mono really suits the subjects with very good clarity with all the surrounding detail you include and the kitsch paintings on the wall. Each items has such a hugh amount for the viewer to take in, you really need to look at each for a while to fully appreciate them and seeing things this close is a great ability. I remember the days when I owned a Remington typewriter and my mom's Singer sewing machine were the latest technology then, pity they were all gone now. I enjoy this extremely atmospheric with the antique feel to this. Nice tones, shadow, contrast and crispiness. Captivating shot that brings this old memory to life. Well done, TFS. My compliments :))
Best regards

Hello Wolfgang
Stopping by your recent posts, and I couldn't resist this. I'm always drawn to B/W, and this vintage shot is beautifully composed, and comic in its anarchy. Christ, tits, typewriter and sewing machine: what else could anyone want?
Regards
Will
