nice black & white.

One nib: Try to use some anti-alias text instead of those jaggy screen font, it kinda ruin the pixs.

are those xpan shots or did u crop?

Which film and scanner?

my favorite in this series is the bicycle with 2 fishermen.... it evokes a sense of detachment yet displays both depth and a serenenity. It made me stop and examine it more carefully . Liked the way the props/components are laid out in the image.....I just feel very good inside when looking at it.

love the dramatic sky in the last posted image

Very nice shots indeed. My fav is also the one with the bike and the 2 guys. The reflection of the bike also adds to the pic.

As Wormz777 mentioned, I do like this picture. But will it look better if you can go closer to the bike just showing the whole bike & it's reflections from the puddle of water(that means using a wider lens) perhaps. Anyway, you probably don't get what I'm saying. From the rest of the pictures, the last one looks great(esp. the clouds).

Hope to view more of your work with your XPAN. How I wish I can afford one.

you don't need a real xpan ah, just know how to crop your shots in PS and more or less you get xpan-like effects...

of course nothing beats the real thing lah, but PS is a cheap workaround to getting the pano effect of the xpan..
