A chat resulted in this. Pinhole artfilter on E-PL1 with 20/1.7

Leftmost two are Neapolitan gravity-based (though made in Turin), a 9-cups and a 3-cups; the other three are Moka pressure-based, 6-3-1cups. Each has its moments.
Oh! And there's the Braun too! But that's German, it's almost tea.


20 mm 1/60 sec f/1.7 ISO400

The 20/1.7 promptted some nighttime and lowlight photography, but it is not a vaccine against noise which sadly is an effect of no light and happy electrons in your sensor. Even eyes get it in the dark.

But.

In this beautiful light cold is coming back. Brr.
Actually, it's not so cold: 12-19°C, but it means people need to get dressed, instead of just pretending to do so.
