Thank you Henry, very kind of you. Well, since I've got some time today, here are a few more, with people (50/1.4a and Velvia 100).

Philip thank you for posting :)

 

I don't know why but I like this little blur in the first picture with a subtle red circle in background

The last has what I call a vivid red , a real red !

The second picture is nice because of the same direction of the walker and the "entree"

Best

The nitrogen rich fertiliser that dominates modern agriculture means that most field margins and verges are choked with Cow Parsley by early May. It can be quite a sight with it's frothy whiteness softening the landscape but it also means that other more botanically interesting plants no longer get a look in. Portra 400 and 28 Summaron-M.

Ian - I have no idea what you just said.  Couldn't relate if I tried :)  Very lovely photo, though :)

These are lovely, Ian. Which lab are you using now? (I've a feeling I've asked you this before - hopefully not in this thread).

I need the collective wisdom here to help me with this one. I remember the circumstances of taking it, wandering about at dusk on the breakwater with a telephoto lens and shooting back towards the road leading into town, but when I saw the picture I could not for the life of me remember seeing that broad curved band of - whatever it is - across the center of the picture. I thought at first it must have been a light leak, or some processing error. Then I thought a weird cloud. I can't remember seeing one, but I do remember there being a huge storm the next day. My brother who is a PhD in meteorology couldn't work it out, either. I wish I could remember, but I can't. Any ideas?

Phil,

I'd venture a wave cloud of some sort. Either dust, accentuated by the into the light angle, or cloud/mist/spray, again accentuated by the direction of the light.

Maybe there was a slight hill or similar, and the wind blowing across this raised section?

Gary do you know this "eight natural wonder of the world" ?

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/jun/12/lost-natural-wonder-in-new-zealand-may-be-found-say-researchers?CMP=share_btn_tw

It's worth coming with all its photo equipment :)

Henry

Yes Henry, saw that recently. The area is about an hours drive from here, a very picturesque section of the country. The pink and white terraces were famous, until they were engulfed in the Tarawera Eruption.

Exciting times if they can be rediscovered.

Fascinating. I have seen instances, in correct environmental conditions, in very rural areas in Southern Missouri (Ozarks) where chimney smoke from a community of homes settles over the entire community in much the same manner as a layer of mist seems to be hovering in your photo. As far as an explanation for this photo...............Luck?

 

Best,

 

Wayne

 

That would make it dumb luck, Wayne! But I like your explanation. I think perhaps the environmental conditions were... unusual that evening.

 

 

 

Who knows; who cares!  It very very cool! 

 

 

 

Probably the best way to look at it Adam!

I think this is perhaps the closest to what I think was going on. It is too "imperfect" I think to be lens flare or superimposition of another picture. The curved thing lies exactly within the frame of the picture, so I pretty much eliminate a processing error. I think it has to be some sort of atmospheric thing happening, seamist or spray backlit by the sun setting over the tops of those hills behind. It was a very still evening. I guess I didn't really twig at the time as I was just out looking for interesting photos. I only took this one of whatever it was, and I think that this explanation fits it best. Wish I'd taken more!

 

Thank you everyone. This is such a great little community here!

just some random shots, none particularly great BUT .... these were shot with Cinestill 800 +82B balancing filter (brings it to daylight) and 2xND filter (read somewhere online that cinematographers like that combo, so I figured, why not try it .... film courtesy of Adam (yes 800 made from US to London back to US with x-ray damage (luggage screened to bring on board, not checked). ...
