Bramley Apple

New #bramleyapple blossoming on the 🍏 tree…

I'm making my work increasingly difficult with every new piece of gear I add, and I'm making life difficult also for my models...
Nevertheless, there is plenty of material to work with from today's shooting with Milla, even discarding the out of focus pictures.

But today we go back to traditions, with a proper teaser, and I'm showing you only the anonymous backside of this new Apple, shot with the Leica SL2-S + the Voigtländer Nokton 58mm f1.4 SL II, a thoroughly tested combination that helped rising the rates of successful pictures of the day!

Tomorrow a photo of the front, shot on the GFX + "Martin", the new Zeiss T* 1,4/85mm Planar ZF.
We will have the chance to see how this match made in heaven performs on some of today's photos, for sure, like 2 of the one I will post tomorrow, but I need a well disciplined and perfectly still model if I want to maximize the quality of this gear, and possibly the new model booked for May, the 28th, will be the ideal catalyst to create the alchemic transformation.
The more you strive for perfection, the more each and every ingredient of the recipe needs to be calibrated.

But don't let this pedantic photographer put you off this new beauty for foolish technical reasons, she is a red headed apple deserving our full attention, whichever camera I was using to take the pictures!
