I believe that the essence of photography is black and white. Color is but a deviance.

— Ruth Bernhard

And now for something completely different….. This is John Brunold. One of this greatest grips in Hollywood. Forgot more about lighting than I know. Knows more about lighting than most gaffers. He is the brains behind figuring out the madness of the way my shooting deck works. He was over last night to indulge in an adult beverage. I had the light turned on of my underlip green onyx bar/countertop (I know fancy) I looked up the Zf with the Plena was sitting on the kitchen counter I quickly put the camera in BW mode.

This is 16000iso, in camera Black and White, raw processed using Studio NX and control points. Image sized in Photoshop.

The new Nikon Zf a very fun camera to shoot and the 135mm f1.8 lens Plena. An exquisitely beautify piece of glass to work with. The Zf is the camera I grab when I have no idea what I am walking into and the Plena is just a visual pleasure to look through whilst I shoot.
