Thank you, Henry!

In this case, I like the colour photo better, I think...

I'd like to echo the thoughts of Xenia and others in welcoming you back, Henry, and expressing great sorrow for your loss. And couldn't agree more about those pictures of Xenia's - absolutely delightful, moody et très atmosphériques!

Edit: As are yours Henry (you posted while I was composing!).

 

Thank you very much for your comment!

I have a soft spot for your M6 photos too...

Best, Xenia

Hi Xenia,

 

I don't have any words with my pure english to describe, how beautiful your photos are. They are great!

 

Chapeau ....

Thank you, Gregor!

Best wishes,

Xenia

 

(By the way, I also understand German and most French.)

Here are two photos of a lioness we were able to follow for a while. When we arrived she had just hunted and we could observe her trying to teach her cubs how to eat (in the photos to come). You see one of the cubs in the background, being more interested in playing around than eating.

"It must be great to find an area like this and have a camera with you, like striking gold. These are truly terrific, Xenia. The panoramic format works perfectly for them. My favourite is the last one. Where was it shot, in Sweden?"

 

Thank you, Phillip!

 

All of these are shot in Portugal, on the Island of Madeira.

The trees are laurels and I have a project going there called:

'Laurels in the Mist'

 

Thanks again and best wishes,

Xenia

Makes me longing for summer...

Your lion photos are great, Phillip, and a wonderful reminder of the many happy times I spent in the Masai Mara!

Philip - love that Velvia 50!  More so than the ektachrome, though the subject matter is great in all.

Hello everybody and a big thanks for your support!

 

I do feel specially greatful because I lost my beloved 903SWC in a burglary we had during Christmas.

The thief, who came through a window on the second floor, crashed both of my Hasselblad cameras when he tried to escape.

Fortunately, Hasselblad could repare one, but the SWC was too damaged to work on.

We were asleep, when it happened, but my husband woke and the thief disappeared over the roofs in our street.

Very much like the 'cat' in an old Hichcook film.

 

Anyway, all of you with an SWC can imagine how I feel...

I'am still waiting for insurance to pay up and this is and has been very frustating times.

 

Thank you again to all of you!

All the best, Xenia

What an awful experience, Xenia. I wonder if burglars ever consider what more they take from people than the actual objects. Hope you are able to find a new SWC once the insurance comes through, and look forward to seeing more of your Laurels in the Mist!
