I'm up in Manchester tomorrow and Friday, so I won't have much (if any) time to post on a weekend thread unless I start one tonight...

These are from a trip Lara and I made to the Natural History Museum in London last weekend. Mamiya C330s, 65mm lens, Lomography 800 ISO film converted to mono (I wasn't too taken by the colours). Minimal PP and just sharpened a little. Incidentally, for anyone who hasn't been, the marble statue is of Charles Darwin.

Finally developed the last roll I took in my Belair in January. Tried really hard to like the camera, but other than an ocassional lucky shot, everything else is mostly out of focus crap.

Unfortunately I'm spending most of World Pinhole Day this weekend on a long flight (business trip to Riyadh) so won't have an opportunity to join in, so here's one I made earlier.

WHOA!!! This is early indeed! Luckily, I was just tweaking this shot that I made a couple of weeks ago. My new favorite swamp. I had to climb up onto the railway to get this--timetable in hand of course. Fuji Pro400H in the Bronica ETRSi

I must go back to the NHM some day. Love that place.

Something old, something blue.

Actually these are old. Bronzes from 1990, shots from 2003. TMax sheet (I think), toned in PShop.

猫 cat in chinese sounds a bit more like mao. The cat was actually in front of the statue, but was I was unable to get the shot as it was scooted out by staff.

A few weeks ago (it was still very cold for the time of year) went cycling into the country side nearby, took the Olympus Trip 35 loaded with Kentmere 400 ASA. Only treatment was some sharpening and cropping. The guys in front of me had just overtaken me. The road is called Slough Lane and links West Wycombe and Saunderton (Bucks County UK).

Fluminian · « **Reply #23 on:** April 25, 2013, 09:40:56 PM »

I keep my G.A.S under control i.e. I'm buying only cheap auto-focus zoom compacts lately.
After Olympus Superzoom 800 and Pentax Espio 738 I bought not-so-compact Fuji DL-350.
I was walking through deserted parts of the railway terminal again so the motives will be
familiar.

Being relatively new here, it appears to me that the "weekend" threads are a sort of open invitation to post photos; if I've got that wrong, please let me know.

In the hope that I'm correct, here's a pinhole shot from my Brownie Flash Six-20 conversion on Kodak Ektar. Taken last weekend, straight off the scanner.

Lots of great shots here - thanks for the kind words.

Here's another from the same roll, with a really unusual (at least I think it's unusual - I've never seen it before) effect.

If anyone is interested, I posted a number of other shots on the blog listed in my signature.

Nice weekend everyone. I've been away from the forum for a while but it's nice to see that the weekend threads are only getting better!

Terry, I like your picture.

And Paul Mitchell, love that one, makes me want to fly to england and travel all over the seaside!

Heres my contribution:

Used a rolleiflex with fomapan 100 and developed on caffenol.

It's refraction (think that's what its called) caused by shooting with the pinhole, into the light.

Actually, it's more due to diffraction than refraction.

And here I thought it was a film hallucination or some weird atmospheric effect caused by proximity to Woodstock (maybe 40 miles off the right edge of the frame)....

The usual slew of wonderful imagery from the FW massive. Nice! Some really beautiful stuff here.

For my part I've been hands-off from FW over the last couple of weeks while I try to finally finish off some music I've been working on for the better part of 4 years. I'll be done by the end of May and will be lowering the tone here from then on on a regular basis. Photography-wise I did manage to take a number of my standard photos whilst down in Cornwall over Easter. I've actually scanned them too; just haven't gotten round to doing anything with most of them. Here are the first two that are in any way presentable:

I've developed another film from my Florida holiday so here's three from the Kennedy Space Centre (or Center) taken on an Olympus XA and Poundland's Agfa Vista ISO 200 film. The saturated colours of the Agfa film suited the subject well and I was able to squeeze a handheld exposure out of the XA but I could have benefited from a wider lens.
