That LUG guy posted more Noctilux shots. This time a simple chess game in an office. The narrative in the LUG thread said he shot all images at f/1.0 on Neopan exposed at 650 ISO.

Nothing real great, just more examples of f/1.0 in use.

Maybe there might be interest in the photographer's comments from where he posted the link, regarding the situation in which the photos were made.

Al:

Thanks for the link. I found the photographer's comments far more interesting than his photos in this case... In particular he stated, "if nothing else, the expression of the spectators is fairly amusing. i enjoyed the fact that no one seemed to notice me or the camera." ...A testament to the stealthiness of the M.

I am quite amused by the photography. I think it's because he presented a series rather than just a shot or two. I like that idea. No single photograph has to be brilliant, but the entire lot really unfolds the story nicely. Plus, dem is Noct shots!

Yes, this is a case where context is all and it works very well as a set - nice quality and a good set of captions.
