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

Thanks. I'm pretty happy with the lens. This is the new version, I think from 2021. I could not justify another Summicron.

One of the first Leica lenses I acquired was a 50 Summicron dual range. Even today that particular lens is priced at bargain levels. While I have not shot with it in a while, I recall being impressed that it was one of the sharpest lenses I had ever experienced. Having that and the 35 Summilux ( third version) has kind of ended my desire for another Summicron.

This is brilliant. I can't say if it is the Citroen.........or the fact that it is a pinhole shot. :)

Henry, thank you very much. As to the question of specifically where it was taken, I'm afraid I can't say. I only figured out it was Algeria at all from photos I have that were taken before and after, although looking at a map of Algeria now I recognize that we must have traveled the road that passes through Ouargla and near to Ghardaia. I'd love to find wherever it was again one day, and I thank you for giving me these clues to start my search. It sounds like you've been to these places - I'd love to see some of your pictures if you have them, or hear of your experiences.

(edit) just looking at pictures from a search of the local towns, it could very well be near Béni Abbès or Timimoun. Based on photos like this (NB not my photo (unfortunately): https://www.flickr.com/photos/jordipostales/2035065713

What a wonderful photo Phil! I really love it. I was in Algeria in 1988 and it was one of the best journeys I ever had.

Thank you so much Marc.

Right! Let's get together and arrange an expedition "back to Algeria"! Doc Henry, too. Any other takers?

Wouldn't that be something! OMG what bag to take?

Phil , Ghardaia or Ouargla we are in the " Great Western Erg "  with its magnificent dunes.

As Marc Benqui said  it is one of the most beautiful regions of Algeria 😀

I also took a few photos with Kodachrome 64, including this one

Thank you again, Henry. I do remember that the people I was with and I camped among the dunes and I've never experienced anything like the sunset or the sunrise, much like in your beautiful picture. I also remember playing Frisbee and running up and down those dunes like an idiot. Oh to be so young again!

Phil thank you for this picture ,  the contrast between the sand color of the large dune in the background and in the foreground is remarkable

Very nice color of Kodachrome slide . In projection on a big screen it must be magnificent ! 😀

Thank you very much once again, Doc. I do remember projecting these slides at times. Just imagine - projecting bright white light through the slide so that the picture would appear on a screen on the other side of the room, many many times larger than the size of the original. It sounds crazy now to think that, doesn’t it? But even with that vast level of enlargement those colours were just - your word - magnificent. I’ve unfortunately sold my Kodak Carousel projector now and all the rotary slide magazines, otherwise I’d do that again.

I still keep my Kodak Carousel projector indeed. Precious memories. And I just can't let go.
