Another of the Manhattan Bridge but this time quite the opposite mood - a bright, clear HRD-like detailed view care of the 6x9 film size

Which frame do you prefer?

 

Linhof Technika Press, Zeiss Biogon 53mm (this is the original version of the Biogon, which is used on the SWC), Tri-X

Here's the fuller frame showing more of the crisp rough river water and the buildings on the Brooklyn side...

 

Adam uncropped for me , more landscape

Thanks Gary , are you been sometimes in this nacelle ?

If not , take a flight with the ballon , impressive because you can appreciate the silence

and wind blowing :)

You used the MP, and the R4S concurrently Henry?

Usually it is MP/M7 or SL/R4S.

Hi Henry,

No, never been ballooning, too scared, high up, no engine, no control, too scary.

Flew past this balloon a while back though, looked nice out over the lake area.

Yes Gary as back up , unfortunately a roll of Kodak Portra in the M7 isn't impressed

and I forget to verify a rewind knob this time....

fortunately I have a Leicaflex SL as back up and I have some color pictures.

As I said you above , I'll keep SLR as back up and for macro picture with Elpro or extender

tube. MP and M7 remain my principal cameras for trips because they are lighter

and discreet  :) no shooting in digital except some pictures I take to compare color analog

versus digital

Henry, you would be blown away by the experience. Pun intended. :p

Not too long ago ( a couple of years) I did a balloon flight in Capadocia (Turkey). It was stunning!

The control, contrary to your fears was amazing. The pilot took us down over a vineyard so we could pick grapes as we hovered over the vines. He truly could fly into the wind, rotate the balloon so people on the opposite side of the basket could see features on the ground. Finally, he landed the basket exactly on the support trailer such that the ground crew had no adjusting to do for retrieval. In a word , Brilliant flying. He was ex Turkish army helicopter pilot, but looked like the local goatherd. Moral: Never judge on appearances!

Footnote: I would post some of the wonderful images I got on that flight, but they are all digital. (Wash my mouth out!)
