I've recently taken a whole series of images at the local industrial museum; mostly on the new Ilford Ortho Plus 80 film stock. These two are of the same location but with quite differing results:

Bonjour Henri,   I still prefer black and white film (I use almost no colour). The advantages of digital don’t mean much to me. Seeing instant results is not so useful, since what comes out of a cam

1/60th - I have the 40mm wide heavy-duty Hasselblad strap on the camera and brace the camera against myself to form a fairly stable platform (triangulation & all that). It was only afterwards I realised I had forgotten that I could / should have used the mirror-lockup function but despite the clunk-clack of the mirror doing its thing, the images came out reasonably sharp.  

Back in early 2017 with my (then) H500C, 60mm Distagon and Portra 400 I used a similar bracing method plus mirror lockup and took this shot at 1/30th.  Did not have any real expectation of a useable result but luck must have been on my side that day.

Well, that one is ever more impressive. The rendition of the lens on the lower half of the image is just ethereal. I'll check for that 40mm strap myself. Thanks a lot for sharing those photographs with us.

I have a Minox 35 and find it quite decent actually. The guess-focus takes some getting used to but with a fast film it's a point and shoot with often great results. 

Thank you Philip, apparently your Minox is a survivor... And yes, with its sturdy polycarbonate shell and the folding mechanism the handling is great. It was for many years my companion. And the focus-guessing--well, the lens is not a Nocti--so that's feasible.  

About the film: I don't know if you ever ran across  the film: it was a Polaroid film--the exposed roll went into a dev machine ( which I only lately sold to a collector ) and a few minutes later your film was ready !    A very special rendering though

Nice picture, Adelie. The Macro-Elmarit-R is a real gem and was pretty underestimated in the R-Lens range... It is the only lens  I have kept from all my  R-lenses; use it on a Canon 5 D with an Adaptor.

Rog, your chroma-line  works are  about the best you have shown us so far. Imho. They look  deceptively simple, but trigger an avalanche of associations. For me, they might be  drafts for something 3-dimensional. A stele for instance.Black granite -separated by light.  Since we are not shy of modern technology, what about an LED illumination for the chroma line- A kind of "your Roden Crater at home" ?

Yes, great picture. At the first glance I thought it was Montmartre on a jolly spring day...

Thanks, Klaus.  Those buildings are the famed San Remo apartment towers on the Upper West Side.  I liked how there were framed neatly between the trees.

What a wellspring of intriguing ideas you are! "Stele" is not in my vocabulary, so you sent me to the O.E.D. for the Greek origin, "granite block." Thank you.  Then, there's Turrell's Roden Crater. I confess  that I must have ambled past his light installations at LACMA, but the memory is peripheral. Interesting fellow and provocative work, so thanks for putting him on my radar. I appreciate your comment that my works "look deceptively simple" because I strive to edit, at least along the margins of minimalism. I wish I could greenlight just half of your marketing ideas. Volcanic hot, or is that Turrell's crater?

Such a flash--a flash of brilliance! A smudge of blur, not Francis Bacon's hand, but there's something about the face, the umbrella, the black and the yellow, and the mouth. Question: are you bobbing and weaving before or after the shot?

LOL, thanks, Rog.  To quote Forrest Gump, my workflow is like a box of chocolates - I never quite know what I'm gonna get 🤣

Colors, galore.  Don't know which film I love more.  They go so well together!  And "chroma" is the right word! 😍

Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice.

From what I’ve tasted of desire, I hold with those who favor fire.

But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate

To say that for destruction ice, Is also great

And would suffice.

Really good combo Rog. Am I the only one seeing an eerie forest in the blue part?
