Apologies for the upload quality- I'm having real problems at the moment which didn't exist until a few days ago. I think I shall have to work at using the gallery on the forum. There just seems to be something strange going on with the resizing process, as if the compression is extra high.

Absolutely stunning shot. Where and when and how was it taken?

 

Don't think it was Wales this year, that would be a wellies and mud bath job; worst luck.

 

Great range of tones and one can almost feel the cold and noise of the water. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Christopher!  These were taken in Ontario, Canada, right after a fresh snowfall.  We were back to warm temps and green grass for the last couple of weeks, but this week is looking cold and snowy again...

 

 

 

Very lovely.  Would love to see a wet print.

 

Thanks!  I wish I could, but I don't have the room for a printing setup at the moment, hopefully next year!

 

 

These three are all with the M3, Zeiss 50/2 Planar, HP5 @ 1600 in D76:

We needed another cuddly toy turtle!

Not sure who the exhibit was sometimes- rays, fish, terrapins and turtles watching us.

A clematis hanging over the footway.

 

All shots on the M6TTL on Kodak Portra 400 and 35/2.4 I think.

Beautiful shot Mike, very nicely presented. (I once had an auditor called Mike Hiles in the UK)

Thank you Christopher. Much appreciated.

 

Hiles is not a common name, at least around here. My family came from the Wallasey area about 1910, and a Great Grandfather wrote a quite creditable and still-sounds-good hymn. No word on auditors, however. 

 

And I love the rivets.

Here's the last bit from my Tri-X 800/1250 trial run with the Olympus XA.

There is no magic to the lens.  It is good but it aint no Leica or Zeiss, that's for sure.  But I had my lab make me 4x6 prints of these and they actually looked quite ok.  There is one lab in NYC whose automated prints I really love.  They are nice and contrasty both in B&W and color, and with the color they are really popping.   

The thing about this camera is the ergonomics.  I think it will fill a gap where my Leicas are a bit too much bulk.
