Sharing some shots of the beautiful Switzerland cities.

Its been a very fortunate opportunity to have some time for leisure shoot during a business trip.

some facts incase many will ask:
- Its a business trip.. travelling alone.
- camera used ( Mamiya AFD2 on film back , 35mm F3.5, 80mm F2.8, 120mm F4 )
- all shots taken with PORTA 400VC ( total of 6 rolls used ).
- all shots was developed in a photoshop and then scanned with EPSON V700

I actually did not visit any city in Switzerland, so I cannot say that I missed it. I noticed their lake cruise boats are very similar. They have boats like this in Brienzer See too. I love the B&W city street shots. But I suspect you had much much better weather, hence I can't wait to see what Switzerland really looked like. :)

#2 and #4 is very nice :) :thumbsup:
thanks for the encouragement :)

#2 and #8 shows some good use of shadows to create more depth in the shot. Love #2 especially. #11 is a bit too cluttered though there is the clock tower hidden in that small gap that catch some attention. :)

appreciate the feedback, thanks.

For #11, its the best that I can do at that location. I cannot seems to be able to get a clean tower no matter where I move. I wanted the beautiful tree trunk and the classic iron bars at the side ( to bring out the mood ). And the result becomes very cluttered.. :cry:

some more pics to share.
