Shot at Greenwich Park in the afternoon of a weekend sunny day, many people relaxed on the grass, excising, chatting or playing with dogs. Queen's House were remarkable, Skyscrapers of Canary Wharf were impacted, they are well representing historical and modern style of London architecture.
I used a 1932 first batch issued Leica Standard camera with matched Elmar 50mm 1:35 lens, as well as adding a Leica Yellow 1 filter to reduce skylight and increase contrast, output are amazing.
You can compare with another shot at the same spot, using a 1937 Leica II and Elmar 50mm 1:35 lens, without any filter here. Both contrast and detail are weaken but still sharp enough.
Which one do you like?
