Thanks a lot Adam, glad that you like it. When I look at my photographic bucket list it seems to me that I should not die before 2143! ;)

You know my preference most of the time Henry, but the JM series in Yemen, well, it's that muted almost earthy colour that whatever it was he used that is striking a chord with me.

Yes Gary I know,  but you'll see with age you'll change :D 

 

And a slight change of tack, this is an NZ Weta, actually a very old insect, I'd have to check, but we always liken them to a dinosaur.

Scary as heck though, especially if they get on you without your knowing, one did to me one night, but that's another story.

Fuji RDP.

There is something unique about the poppies of France Henry, your photograph(s) bring a poignancy (at least to me) and this one especially speaks in unwritten words which are comforting.

 

Merci

Charles

 

Thank you Charles coming from you I am happy :)

Now I know I am not alone for poppies

I like the pure and natural red of this flower , unique IMO

and it reminds me a lot blood :)

Film cannot be compared with digital . One of the reasons , that's  the "nuance"

Look at this picture , softness, sweetness and no agressivity , no "cutting" edges lines

of  flowers ... finally picture is like a painting and impressionist Monet is right to paint poppies

so beautiful flowers and red in addition !

 

for all poppies lovers :)

and in contre jour a must :)

Gary,

 

The SWC Bug is a nasty little bug ;)  but once bitten you will learn to drink the cool-aid.  Here are a few things I've learned along the way using it handheld in less-controlled scenarios.

 

  • I typically shoot at a much slower pace, and let the frame come to me.  I will find an active location, zone focus to a spot and wait for something fun to enter the frame.  
  • For starters try shooting around f5.6/8.0; at 8 feet away your DOF is about 8ft/15ft.    One you get beyond 10ft at f8 you DOF is approx 6ft to Inf.  The SWC becomes more of less a point and shoot at f8; just leave 1/3 of fame in foreground as a guide or just shoot it at the Hyper-focal distance for larger more distant shots.
  • As Adam said, keep it level, which goes with my first point...I shoot slow..no meter, no fcous,..etc. just take your time with this one

-  Which VF do you have?  The finders that came with late SWC/Ms..903/905 have an eye cup, a built in level and considered 'better'  Your other option is to try and grab a Voigtlander 6x6 finder for the SWC; they are expensive, hard to find, but worth every cent.

 

Enjoy your SWC, hope it starts to work for you soon!

 

~Marc

 

 

Yes, in a word, painful it is Eoin.

 

If all I had was a few older trannies in anything larger than 35mm I'd not be bothering, but the SWC bug got me a week ago, found one, in need of a CLA, and this has been done.

 

It's a weird beast, not sure if it is destined to stay with me, but I'll give it a go. The finder for example is non-glasses friendly, in fact without glasses it isn't even friendly. I'm not sure if I want to use it as a view camera, on a tripod with the ground-glass back, so we'll see how the first few rolls go.

 

If it stays, then I am up the creek, and will source an Epson, an older one to start with, to get my feet wet so to speak.

Gary
