I lurk here, several times a day, and would contribute if I could break through the barrier of a large backlog of undeveloped rolls of film--growing every week--but I seldom comment, despite my admiration for the excellent work.  Phil's White Sands makes me want to say BRAVO and makes me want to find time to break throught the barrier.  I love everything about that picture--composition, light, texture--it's all just right.

Blaxton, we all like to see photos and all like to contribute photos when we can, but, that's not always possible for a variety of reasons. You thoughts and opinions would be most welcome.

awesome stuff everyone, Great low light stuff steven (wish even one of my low light film shots looked that good what am I doing wrong?!)

love your panoramas volker

just a couple of Olympus trip shots on HP5 dev'd in Rodinal from me. getting a bit dispondant with this film/dev combo, just getting VERY contrasty results, and often quite grainy. Then again some of that could be my pretty bog standard monitor.

I was lucky enough to stumble on a film set a couple of weeks ago in Crystal Palace Park. The film will be called "Rush" and the plot apparently is about Niki Lauda's career. Crystal Palace Park used to held racing cars back in the days and the British driver James Hunt was Niki's main rival.

I have enough pictures taken on film for an essay which I'll be doing later... here are a few I took with my Rolleiflex SL35 on Agfa APX 100.

Here's one I'm happy with from my trip to New York City a while ago. Just scanned it this weekend. I just had to pack away my scanner due to a move so I won't be making any weekend thread contributions for a long while. :(

Shot with an OM-2 + Zuiko 50/1.4 on Provia 400X pushed 1 stop.

Gorgeous! Sometimes, you've just got to drop one photograph in the mix. All you need is one. Resist the temptation to splash many, and feel good about the one shot of the day...

Mind you though, that HKG set from Volker ist zer gut! Nice work here! Skj.

Good stuff as always. My shot was a rookie mistake. Square mask in a Holga, slider set to 16. I never shoot anything but square in a regular Holga, not sure when I would have moved switch. Instant triptych though.

Thanks a lot for the warm response, everyone. :)

Phil, I'm really liking your shot of that structure in White Sands National Park. What is it?

Volker, those are some very captivating shots of Hong Kong.

Thom, I can feel your pain about getting a moving dog in focus...I still have yet to.

And sapata...those shots are just really cool. A fake visual time capsule...

There have been some wonderful images posted on this weekend's thread so far - way too many to mention individually but Peter's (Hookstrapped) "Holga double on Ektachrome" has just taken my breath away. I love it when colours bleed into one another and create their own, unique colours at the point where they touch. Fantastic.  :)

Nice work all. Glad you are back on the island again Mr Windy - and with a lovely image too:-)

I went down to Cromor today to see my pal William. It rained. Still, tis a wonderful place. I hid behind my car out of the gusty wind on the way home to take this with the 2x3 Graflex - handheld. Found a lightleak in the roll back too :-( .

Had a lovely walk over to Eilean Chaluim Cille / St Columba Isle over the causeway at low tide. [Now owned by the Queen's Equerry]. He didn't seem to mind :-)

While processing my Southwold films I discovered I had some pinholes taken on our FW outing to the Kent coast way back in January!

This one was taken in Broadstairs on my Zero 2000 and Delta 100
