    That Ilford Delta 100 does a nice conversion...... from digital that is. :-)

    Yeah, short DOF took the 'nose' off the M60.

    AGreed, I want to see more of the gun, but also I want to see what he's on, just a wider view in general.

    I do like the conversion.

    Liz,
    This is what he's in. (shot at a different time...) It's an M35A2 "duece" or 2.5 ton transport gun truck.

    And the gun in action (M60, full-auto, 7.62mm)

    And there was no conversion. This was shot with my Nikon FE and Ilford Delta film/ISO100.

    :D My military occupational specialty was light artillery.

    We expect guns to be more handsomely endowed... :D

    My military specialty was PIO (Public Information Office). Our
    weapons were typewriters, and our motto was "We don't retreat.
    We backspace."

    That sounds like Air Force (cough...cough....) to me. Well, at least according to all my non-USAF vehicle collectors. :D

    Moyles deal with clipping, but not the kind we deal with in images.

    I'm not sure why people keep commenting on "nice conversion." You either shoot film, or either push a couple sliders, spend hours in Photoshop, or use things like Nik efex etc. Whatever. It matters not.

    A "nice conversion" may make a good image into great. Otherwise, it doesn't matter.

    In this case, sorry to say, it doesn't matter. It's a dude with sunglasses with some machine. There is no context (until later photos) and no story.
