Where's the laundry?

Once again in Mdina, Malta, a beautiful, tidy walled city that is a must-visit destination when in this island country. More Mdina photos are on the 3rd and 4th Malta photo galleries on our site.

Stuart, a very graphical image. I like the interpretation of the open blue sky through the window. Have you also tried a vrop which leaves the right corner and the sky above the wall out?

Stuart,

 

Very good image - the skies were obviously as blue as when we visited Mdina a few weeks later. I couldn't resist answering your question with a non-Leica picture from Malta - not the other side of your wall but a street in Valletta and taken with a Rolleiflex (Horrors - in a moderators post as well - I'll be drummed out of the Scouts!)

 

Best wishes

Hi Andy,

 

I do my own B&W and get the colour slide stuff done at Pro2col in Manchester. Pro2col Imaging Limited They do a good job - nice clean processing. I scan myself. I've recently got an Epson V750 Flatbed which I'm very pleased with. A friend has a Nikon 9000 film scanner which I previously used. We did a scan of the same negative in both and couldn't tell the difference.

Thanks Keith.

 

I use Pro2Col for my E6 processing, but they are a bit on the pricey side for scanning (£60 for decent hi-res scans - I thought that was a bit excessive :) )

 

I have just started playing with my father's Bronica (15 on a 120). The local Agfa processor did an absolutely terrible job of some C41 + scan for me last week. Very, very disappointing.

 

Maybe the V750 is a solution...

 

(Apologies to Stuart for hijacking the thread - let normal service resume!)

Ivan, Jaap, Bernardo, Paul, Jacques, conrad & Pete - Thank you.

 

Keith - Thank you, and I just assume "Rollei" is one of those weird acronyms that Leica has for its old screw mount camera accessories.

 

Marcus - Thank you. I've very fond of the wonderful blues that Leica lenses lend to skys, but I think you're right that another interesting image is lurking here, and I still have the blue for the window. As you can see, you were right, of course:

Thank you Stuart for the crop version. Seeing it, obviously they are two different images. I think the cropped version helps (at least me :o ) understanding the game with the shadow which I almost overlooked in the first image.

 

Cheers

Marcus
