edwardkaraa Posted September 17, 2017 Share #40061 Posted September 17, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Thanks for your comment, Edward. I think it is Agfa Vista 400. Not too sure, sorry. This is Berlin. I buy film from an online store which has a street outlet here: Fotoimpex. Like a kid in a candy store, I bought an assortment of film and don't remember what I loaded into the camera as I walked out. I fully understand By the way, fotoimpex are very good. I order quite often from them. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Posted September 17, 2017 Share #40062 Posted September 17, 2017 (edited) If I am getting out of hand, please let me know. I am having a lot of fun with this Minox. Minox in nature: The North American opossum/"possum" ( In my life-long relationship, a somewhat misdirected and hapless creature) evidently makes for such succulent carrion that the North American turkey vulture- a normally shy creature that flies off at even the hint of an approaching human- will allow you to park your truck and take a quick snap, rather than give up his seat at the table.

In fact, the vulture was even willing to put up with the indignation of a portrait shot as I pulled up, stopped, rolled down the window and took a quick snap.

Wayne Posted September 17, 2017 Share #40064 Posted September 17, 2017 Berlin hot rods Berlin hot rods.jpg Suede, This is a photograph that I keep coming back to. I love the subject. It is a very up-lifting shot. It makes me want to have a beer with the group. I hope for an opportunity to take something similar. I do not possess sophisticated knowledge/vocabulary related film types; for this reason, I avoid comment on the subject.........However, there is something about the quality of the image I find pleasing. Now that I know the film used here, I am inspired, and will stick my neck out: In prints, I have always preferred matte finish to glossy. One of the things I find so appealing in the Agfa Vista, and the Fuji Superia, as well, is the fact that the scans from those films always seem to innately present the ghost of a matte finish. I think it very apparent in your "Berlin hot rods." Thanks again, Wayne P.S. Another great thing about the shot is that it makes me think about my Xpan. What a wonderful opportunity it would have been for that camera to show its stuff. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suede Posted September 17, 2017 Share #40066 Posted September 17, 2017 IID, 50mm 2.5 Hektor, Adox Color Implosion image233077.JPG Wayne, Adox Color Implosion. Fantastic rendition of the subject. Congratulations! Oh so Monet! I think this Implosion might be fun to try with some autumn colours here. On the subject of the other picture (hot rods), I think that the matte finish on the closest hot rod, matte black framing the cheery personality, fans one's preference for the matte texture. The photo benefits from some lovely light from a setting sun. I'll try and post a few more from the same roll of Vista 400. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A miller Posted September 17, 2017 Share #40072 Posted September 17, 2017 (edited) Great timeless photo, Phil. To me, the waiter is precisely in the place that you want him to be. And the slight motion blur is a plus and not a minus. Everything sings very well and congrats on the wonderful photo! As the pictures above attest, film is certainly the very best. (There you go - I must be a poet, even though I didn't know it!). Anyway, this is one of those photos (we all have ones like it I think) that, when I took it, I thought "YES!" because I envisaged I'd got a number of elements to work together harmoniously - the lovely light filtering back into the Egyptian café, the classical columns and the funky design on the floor, the ramshackle chairs and tables, then, fortuitously, the waiter walking into the picture. At f2 and 1/15th second I knew he'd be slightly blurred and out-of-focus, and I hoped I'd got him in a good spot and that the rest of the picture would be reasonably sharp, and that he and the other shapes would work together harmoniously in a black and white picture. So often those moments that are "YES!" when we take them turn out to be real fizzers when we come to look at them on the proof sheet, but I was really pleased with this one. In fact I'm still really pleased with it: Café, Alexandria, Egypt 1987 Canon F1, FDn 35mm f2, Ilford FP4 Edward - The only thing that is shameful about this photo is your half case :) Now take that thing off and enjoy that skin-to-skin sensation that Leica intended!

Don't be afraid - your skin won't hurt the camera! LOL Haha, Adam! That's funny. The reason for the half case isn't to protect the camera, but rather because I find Leica's leatherette to be slippery, especially after hand holding the camera for extended periods of time, as it normally occurs when I'm out on the street shooting. I find that the soft leather of the case improves my grip significantly, and I had to resort to this solution after a couple of near disastrous incidents Edited September 17, 2017 by edwardkaraa 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
