    I was very often thinking why I have different feeling from these very old photographs.. They usually have very low depth of field, which is understandable, but they also have amazing space.. I realized it when I was looking to the Library of Congress sets.. Almost all pictures have slightly shorter focus (closer to the camera). Notice that the focus is to the grass before tank, and not to the tank itself. Today's practice is to focus directly to the point of interest (eyes in the portrait photography, tank turret in this case..)

    Just thinking of the military aspect.

    How succesful was this tank on the battlefield?

    This guy was a good photographer.
  • momentous friction said:
    I assume it was intentional to have photograph a crewman with such a dirty face.

    I love how the colors in the tank--the light tan, the darker brown, and the silver brightened from the flash of the camera--match those of the soldier himself.

    Awesome lighting here.
  • Marcel Diebold said:
    Yes, i didn´t know they had such a good eye for the lightning at that time allready. Amazing.

    Off camera bulb flash triggered with a cable that must have been run through a hatch. Slightly lower power (or diffused) on camera flash used for fill. Heck of a composition. This guy was way ahead of his time for lighting!
