Haha, well I'm not sure I use a particularly sophisticated workflow to be honest. Actually it could just be a matter of having nailed the exposure, which wasn't too tricky on a bright sunny day.

 

Impressive, indeed, Philip. But then again so is your scanning workflow, so not really sure what to attribute to the film!! :)

Here is a close up of the massive limestones of the Western Wall in Jerusalem  Probably will not be appreciated by anyone in this low resolution size, so I uploaded a full resolution version on my flickr page (link below) in which the impressive sharpness of the Zeiss lens and Portra 160 can be viewed.  

What I like about it are the nice earth tones of the portra 160, the symmetry of the stones and the numerous soulful letters and notes that are jam packed in the cracks in between the stones.

Hi res version (give it a few seconds for the super large file to fully appear clear on your screen)

Nice picture Adam .Color of stone is superb.

 

Just a little notice. When I put the two pictures Flickr and Leica Forum side by side

color stone (ex. in the middle) seems darker in Flickr . You know that :)

 

Your series of Dead Sea and Wall are really superb.

Thanks for posting.

Best

Together with the Senanque Abbey the Chapelle Saint-Sixte must be the

monument most often depicted on the cover of travel guides of the

Provence. It is situated on the outskirts of a village called Eygalieres and

dates back to the middle ages. And it's rather photogenic.

Charming Christoph. I had to look it up, where it was, but we spent a week in the surrounding area, mainly the Luberon. Very enjoyable. Places like La Coste we will never forget.

Took plenty of pictures, but they were all on a Canon digital.

Thanks  Gary,

 

To tell you the truth, it is almost impossible to take a bad picture of Chapelle Saint-Sixte, as it is photogenically arranged on that

little hill, surrounded by trees, hills and sun... here another view, this time through a piece of Leica glass.

Viewed through a wide-angle and an orange filter it then looks like this:

I kept the wide-angle and filter, but went around against the light:

I developed 2 more rolls from my trip in Italy...those are the pictures Ive taken on a beach location. It was about to rain heavily and the sky was pretty amazing.
I think I messed up during the development - somehow the pictures are very very grainy, and I can see at the top and the bottom some 'dark shades' just in the same position as the holes in the film strip...I was wondering if someone could shed some light in what mistake I could have possibly done? I was developing a bit on the rush today...and i've been distracted a lot too....

 

Again this is Kodak TMax100 with Contax T2

I like the gritty look you have. They could be a tad dark for my liking.

 

Development and distractions don't go hand in hand, one or the other I reckon. It's not rocket science, but if you get distracted, the results aren't always what you want.

 

I'd think you might need to show us the whole neg so as to see the "dark shades".

 

Still, looking good though.

The sky, particularly in the first picture is amazing, and in my view the grain fits well.

Thoughts to the "dark shades". That effect can appear when there is too little movement during fixation, perhaps likewise during development.

I also have seen similar effects when using films with a very transparent carrier material (but I think Tmax is not one of those), where, when the film roll is handled even in moderate light, light may be guided through total internal reflection along the film and becomes visible on the emulsion around the sproket holes. This should only be apparent on the first few frames of the film though.

Repetitive streaks originating from the sprocket holes is usually caused by over agitation, how do you agitate how many and how often ?
