Description ...Sir Thomas. Photo references of armor.

Worked a small bit of HDR to bring out the detail.

Medium format.

I've never really seen real armour (like stuff that wasn't in movies, and was actually wearable) so this is a very interesting photo to me. Aside from that, I like the contast; your B&W photos are some of my favourites.

This is a transitional period...on the way to complete plate armor. Also the broadsword and war hammer are historical.

The armor is very wearable! We fight in tournament with it.

I shot this in 2005, but it is just now that I have been learning HDR, that I have made it a better photo, or at least what I wanted it to be. The original B&W that I had printed from this is not as pretty.

Thanks for viewing and am flattered that you like my photos!

I learn something new everyday; today was a brief history of armour I honestly didn't know much about armour at all though.

I'd like to try out HDR one day, it makes some great photos is both colour and B&W - clear and crispy.

And you're most welcome
