Aperture Series: Blue Beater Bike (645Z)

The Pentax 25/4 is shot here at relatively close range on the Pentax 645Z in DNG format.

This blue bike caught my eye for its strong color and contrast. It turned out to be a serious exposure challenge that demanded careful exposure using the entire dynamic range of the Pentax 645Z.
