Dan Ryan Posted August 3, 2017 Share #37549 Posted August 3, 2017 (edited) One more from the test roll put through my 'new' R5 last week. 60mm Macro Elmarit-R & Acros100. After the rain-shower. Keith - I was sufficiently moved by this image to check your link to “Emulsion Mania”. Your photos of the English countryside are breathtaking. Then something caught my eye, and tugged at my memory - your reference to “The Ridgeway”. My wife and I love trekking the ancient trails: the Chemin du Puy from Le Puy en Valay to St Jean Pied de Port; the Camino Frances from St Jean Pied de Port to Santiago de Compostela: the Camino del Norte from Bayonne/Irun to Santiago de Compostela and - the shortest but toughest of them all - the Pennine Way. We find it difficult to explain to our friends who adore cruises how magical it is to be out in the countryside of France, Spain and the UK in hail, rain, sunshine, and snow - and how we become truly spell bound while following these old paths. Then we came across that magnificent book “The Old Ways” by Robert Macfarlane. I started to read it to Anne at night, so we could both enjoy it simultaneously. And it was Macfarlane who first alerted us to The Ridgeway (and to the story of the father of that wonderful English photographer James Ravilious). What a coincidence to see you mention this place in the captions to your photographs. This photo “after the rain shower” looks similar to a couple in your blog. Is the track in your post the same as in the photos in the blog? but on the other side of the hill which we see with the copse on the left? Anyway, thank you. We would like to do The Ridgeway sometime. Edited August 3, 2017 by Dan Ryan 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sblitz Posted August 3, 2017 Share #37551 Posted August 3, 2017 The more I look at this, Steve, the more I like it. What wonderful colour - so atmospheric! This, I think, enhances the sense of joy that pervades the whole image. Thanks. This shot is I believe truly a film shot, color grain etc. It could be produced in digital but only with a lot of work on the computer. This is right out of the camera, as they say :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

erl Posted August 3, 2017 Share #37553 Posted August 3, 2017 From my project "Living Like This" Religious meeting in a house in Bradford West Yorkshire UK. Leica MP with 35mm Summicron. Film is Kodak TRI-X pushed to ISO 3200 15 Minutes in D76 stock. Paul, this image has a depth that is difficult to absorb in one viewing. It belongs to a genre that I aspire to. You have my compliments on creating this image. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

erl Posted August 3, 2017 Share #37555 Posted August 3, 2017 Doc Henry, My thoughts are with you for many reasons, but principally for the loss of your mother. I too have been there and have some idea of your feelings. All I can add is cherish the good time spent with her and honour her by practicing the good things of life she taught you. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Henry Posted August 3, 2017 Author Share #37556 Posted August 3, 2017 (edited) From my project "Living Like This" Meat shop in Bradford West Yorkshire UK. Leica MP with 21mm Elmarit. Film is Kodak TRI-X in D76 stock. Last one for today - thank you for all who looked and commented- I do appreciate it!! I know that my style of photography is not for everyone and even can be seen as depressing and I understand this. To me the Leica camera, that was born in the 1920's when photojournalism was still in it's infancy, blew all the "cobwebs" away and in the hands of the masters of the day made some of the century's most memorable and yes moving images. I try to emulate this with my Leicas because I want to make a statement through the lens of these beautiful cameras and without being silly I like to think of what Phillip Jones Griffiths once said - "For every picture that I have ever taken I would have still been there but without any film in the camera" To me the Leica is a an exquisite tool that transponds mere mechanics and lets you slip between the heartbeats to record the emotion of the scene before it's lens. Maybe OTT and it probably is but that is how I feel when I pick my Leicas up. Great pictures and a good job Paul ! That's what Henri Cartier Bresson said about photography , when he used his M camera : "If there is no emotion, if there is no shock, if we do not react to the sensibility, we should not take a photo. It is the photo which takes us". Best Henry Edited August 3, 2017 by Doc Henry 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stealth3kpl Posted August 3, 2017 Share #37560 Posted August 3, 2017 I also scan in and export in b+w tiff. I think some scan in rgb and select whichever channel looks sharpest. Pete 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
