Usual rules apply when in Italy. 1. If you stand out you are fair game 2. When having refrescas al fresco don’t leave camera on edge of table. The physical difference between a Q and a Ricoh are not wide enough to not take the Q and miss loads of great shots with the Ricoh. Sling the Q and keep it under your armpit when wandering, whip it out (the camera) and shoot. I’ve never had a problem in Italy (apart from the dodgy toll gates) so don’t compromise quality because of fear. Oh and take out insurance 😂

Even in the face of the Q2, the Q is still a winner.

We’ve all done it! 🤪

Now that second shot is a cracker!!!!

Run B+W first then the colour. Easy choice........colour.

I think I'll give that a go. Must be easier than the faffing I have to go about with in LR.

Thanks. The third one is done using Lightroom and multiple grad filters.

Yes, I quite like it. I like the Saint Michel shot. Reminds me of those medievil movies where the castle is still some way off.

First play with Fuji Acros and Rodinal. Great, much better than Rollei Superpan. Just Passing By by @McLeica, on Flickr

A Shanghi Street. One week later these buildings were knocked down and the people who lived there evicted. A very sad moment as you used to see various stalls and shops serving the local community and kids out front doing their homework.
