Advertisement Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Hi philipus, Take a look here I like film...(open thread). I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
stray cat Posted April 2, 2017 Share #29982 Posted April 2, 2017 This is from a few weeks ago. The flowers were just being removed and a news crew is there to record it. The flowers and toys were placed there by good, decent people after an evil person drove his car through our main pedestrian walk in Melbourne murdering six people and, in running them down, trying to murder 28 others. Who can begin to comprehend much less understand such behaviour? Bourke Street, Melbourne 2017 M6TTL, Summicron 35mm, Ilford HP5+ 15 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Posted April 2, 2017 Share #29984 Posted April 2, 2017 (edited) The orchard at Bateman's (the former home of Kipling) earlier in the spring. 28 Summaron-M and Portra 400. Thanks for this beautiful photograph. I also appreciate knowing it is the former home of Kipling. Instead of just a landscape, it is a landscape the great poet gazed upon as he mourned the tragic loss of his son. I am not sure why, but Kipling's sorrow pulls hard at me whenever I am reminded of him. I have never had opportunity to view such a landscape scene........Photography. What a gift it is.

philipus Posted April 2, 2017 Share #29989 Posted April 2, 2017 I really like your cycling series and the results you get with the SWC, Eoin.

wattsy Posted April 2, 2017 Share #29991 Posted April 2, 2017 (edited) Has that Summaron been off your camera at all Ian, it certainly is doing the business? Lovely landscapes plus that stunning shot recently of your daughter, a great all rounder. Gary Thanks Gary. No, the only other M lens I have used in the last couple of months is the Macro Elmar that Henry likes so much. I find changing lenses generally a bit of a faff so whatever is the flavour of the month for me stays on the camera. A 'Henry-ish' photo of Dunster Castle in Somerset taken with the Summaron and T-max 400. The inviting sea of the Bristol Channel can be seen in the distance.

chrism Posted April 2, 2017 Share #29997 Posted April 2, 2017 Here's a laugh for you experienced darkroom types. I spent the day setting up my dusty old Besseler 67 VC, RH Designs Analyzer Pro, safelights etc in a spare bathroom, and having done it decided I ought to justify the effort by making a couple of prints. In each case, these are photographs I have already scanned and uploaded to Flickr, so it was easy to scan the prints on the V850 and upload those scans for comparison. What was not so easy was remembering how to work the Analyzer Pro, a black box I loved dearly at one time for saving me no end of paper on test strips, and even saving me doing a lot of dodging and burning with it's ability to assist split grade printing. I'm going to have to study the manual at length if I do this again. One thing I didn't sort out is the vignetting - it's not on the negatives and I haven't figured out why I'm seeing it through the enlarger. Perhaps this Besseler doesn't work too well with 6x6 negatives? It never did that to me in the past with 35mm negs. Anyway, here we go. First the scanned negative, then the scan of the print. Coffee by chrism229, on Flickr Scan of silver print 2 by chrism229, on Flickr Pippa 2017 #1 by chrism229, on Flickr Scan of silver print 1 by chrism229, on Flickr Plainly, I shall not learn my living as a printer. It took me three goes on the portrait to burn in the face enough to see what we have there, but it could have done with a bit more (and less contrast too, so must remember all that stuff about split grade printing). I enjoyed my afternoon in the dark, and have left everything set up in case I get inspired again, but I think I'm getting better results with my hybrid approach. No doubt with enough time and effort I could improve the wet prints, but for now I think I'll keep them as a second string to my bow, just to be enjoyed when I need an excuse to lock myself into a darkroom alone for a day! Oh, a big hint for anyone converting a bathroom: north american windows often have detachable flyscreens inside them. Take off the flyscreen, place it in a couple of black garbage bags (or wrap it in them if it won't go inside), then replace the screen and carefully do up the latches without tearing the bag. Perfect removable darkness - easy! Chris 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EoinC Posted April 2, 2017 Share #29998 Posted April 2, 2017 Still clicking with that "sports camera" Eoin, very nice. Did you take anything else, camera-wise? Gary Hi, Gary. "Yes" for cameras (1DX and M246 Monochrome), but "No" for film cameras. Our daughter had my M6 with her, but I haven't seen what she shot with it yet. She was competing, so photographing was probably low on the priorities list. I've still got a few more films to develop from there - Just haven't had much time of late. The SWC is the ideal sports camera, if you disqualify just about every other small or medium format camera known to mankind. Better at it than most 8x10's, I believe. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, a great way to while away the day for sure. Gary 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already own the macro adapter for the M240, but more and more I like film photography and my M240 remains more and more at home. So I will buy the "old macro adapter". It seems to me, that it can be bought only secondhand. I will look for it. Sorry for my bad English. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
