Figured I'd start this one as I work all weekend. Had a little haikyo adventure yesterday exploring an abandoned greyhound track 35 miles north of Phoenix. So I'm wandering around taking Polaroids, taking my time, and I step into the building...there is an old woman in a nightgown standing there pointing a handgun at me! And it was like an old-school six shooter. Caretaker I assume, but I bolted. I wasn't up for conversation at gunpoint! Guess I won't be checking that place out again. A bit ridiculous, really. Neat place, though.

Wow, I thought you were making that up at first until I got to the end, and no punchline!
Facing up to six-shooters in the line of your art, that's dedication!

I'm catching up on a bit of scanning from the summer. These from a glorious trip to Cornwall. These are Penzance.

Hey Nigel ! These are really good pictures...
I was there few months ago and I love that swiming pool ! I couldn't take any pictures because there were loads of people inside and I though they might think I was doing something bad... I just didn't want any hassle ! Unfortunately didn't had a chance to go back. I did few shots around that area with my Holga though...
-
one neg scan, one c-print (almost there on the c-print, just needs a small tweak to warm it up for a final print..)

Nigel..I agree...those images are wonderful!

thanks Chops / Diane - they were taken with my Holga 120GFN and Fuji Pro 400.
Diane - we haven't heard from you for ages, I'm very envious of your trip to Portland, one of my favourite cities. Good to have you back though!
-
I agree with the others...wonderful stuff, Nigel.
I, too, am envious, Diane. I love Portland.
More from my scanning efforts of my trip to New Mexico:

Was under the weather for a couple weeks..had a bit of a hospital stay due to a green pea size kidney stone..(YUCK!) and then took my little trip to Portland..Had a great time and got some good photos..I met Jim at his place of employment at the photo shop but didn't get to spend much time unfortuneately! I was so lost without a computer!

I recently tried my grandfather's old Voigtl?nder Vito II. And it still seems to work perfectly fine though it's probably something like 50 years old.

Wow! Brilliant stuff and stories too, (flipping hell Sean!).
Nigel, I love those outdoor pool pictures, there is one in my town too, it hasn't been used in years. There's something really cool about these places.
Love the diptych pairs Hookstrapped, and Vicky's portrait of Grace, lovely.
Good to see that camera on the road Alan. Great pictures!
I'm still scanning a few snowy pictures, this was from one of the coldest days, Jess hopped over the fence, and I ripped my coat in the rescue.

Grrrrreat stuff. I find capturing the beautiful light and the sense of cold very difficult. Very nice.
-
stunning, sinead!
-
Very nice Sinead... the snow looks just like it's supposed to: cold :)
(sorry to hear about the coat though...)
Urban: I just love the colors! Very cool looking.

Urban: I just love the colors! Very cool looking.
Thanks :) Unfortunately it was the only image that came out OK on the film. Next on my list are a light meter and a small tripod (a Gorilla Pod, maybe?) so that I can try again.

Diane, I'm glad you're feeling better.
And thank you! Such kind words, you put a smile on my face too :)

Thanks guys. It's all gone now, snowing yesterday, but very quickly turned to rain :(
Really wish I'd shot more when it was here.
*sigh*
