Spam? No way, loved the Dead Sea series Adam, and then Wall shots as well.

Not something I know too much about (the Wall and the religion in general), but still very much enjoyed them.

Thanks, Gary.  I'll ask you again in a month... :)

Enjoying the old series Eoin, is the general hue a magenta colour, and would they be better "corrected", even if the Doc may not approve?

Not being critical, just picky.

Either way, looks like the FD17 was a fixture, a 35mm equiv of the SWC.

Hi, Gary. They are as scanned (no correction for Kodachrome applied, so Vuescan is presumably treating it as generic E6), and my LR is crashing, so no correction or clean-up in there, either.

 

The FD 17 was certainly a fixture. For a few years it was the only lens I used. The other one I had on hand was a FD 500mm Reflex - I guess I was a person drawn to the extremities...

More sailing Australia - Amazing how much fun you can have with a Zodiac, a piece of rope, and a piece of plywood. The vignetting is from a Ewa underwater housing / bag (Kodachrome)...

Very nice!  Thanks for sharing.  

I have some ancient structures from Jerusalem to share as well.

I took some photos during the summer of the Western Wall in Jerusalem, which was the western outer wall of the second Jewish Temple and was built by King Herod about 2000 years ago.  At the time, the temple was considered to house the presence of God and thus the Wall is considered a piece of that history and spiritual connection.  Jews flock to this wall and pour out their soul in prayer.  They often also leave a part of their soul in the form of letters and notes to God that they fold up and stick in the cracks between the large limestones.  

Given the significance of the Wall, I wanted to see if I could come up with some interesting isolated photos using both slide film and portra 160 (which is good with neutral tones)

 

Here are two taken with Velvia 50 and the SWC

  

 

Here is the second, also with Velvia 50 and the SWC

Here is another from the Western Wall in Jerusalem...

 

This time with Portra 160

Adam,

 

Comparing your three pictures of the temple wall, I find myself drawn to all of them for different reasons. The composition in the first one is compelling and classic, and the human protagonist is a clear indicator of the location. This is much less the case in the second picture, however its dynamic is quite compelling. Finally the picture with the two older men and the boy is a masterpiece of catching the right moment, with a lot of " human touch", but, I do miss their feet. Overall: well done, I'm looking for more.

 

Have a good weekend,

 

Christoph

Seeing Eoin's selfie, I decided to post one of my own, from a year or three back, OK, more than three.

How I accomplished this, I can't remember, possibly my dear wife tripped the shutter, as the camera didn't really have a self-timer.

Me, when I had hair, at a place called Harwood's Hole  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harwood_Hole
