This is great Wayne, very well executed. And those colours are fantastic.

 

 

Wow Phil! Insanely good.

 

 

Very cool Mike, I prefer this version with the people in the background. 

 

 

Love the tones in this one, Phil, from the inky "tar-ish" blacks to the retained highlights, and the composition.

 

Thank you so much, Philip. Your 40mm and 80mm sunsets illustrate perfectly what Henry was saying about the incomparable tonal subtleties that film MF delivers.

Another fantastic one, Phil.  A buffet of contrasting textures and, well, contrast! 

Thank you sincerely, Adam and Henry. Yes, this little 6X6 folder is capable of surprisingly high quality results - and medium format (as we know) is the way to go for the things you mention, Henri. That particular camera is good for keeping you engaged in the act of photographing - no light meter and no focussing other than a distance scale on the lens. So in using it you tend to keep your grey cells ticking over, which is an altogether good thing.

 

In response to your kind request, Doc:

Haha that made me laugh Wayne. 

 

Here's another sunset, well post-sunset, this time from Gotland, just outside the city of Visby.

One from my treasured little Voigtländer Perkeo I from about 1950. I picked up this tiny little 6X6 folder quite a few years ago for $35:

The tonal gradation is just wonderful (as is the composition).
