I spent a few days at the Medieval town of Sarlat, France...


The 1st shot is a gem ;-)

Thanks Gregor!
The town itself it's a gem... almost impossible not to get a decent shot !

Well, since it's better late than never... Happy birthday Ann. Hope you had some nice cake and a ton of fun stuff in pretty wrapping paper :)

Some pretty nasty computer troubles have kept me away from FW for a few weeks but, hopefully, all is well again and I can post here, virus free.  As always, I have been enjoying the photos on the weekend thread.  This week's seems especially rich.  Diane's first post set a high standard--cheap camera or not.

Here is a self portrait taken with my Rolleiflex on Tri-X in front of a seizure-inducing wall at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.  I like the way the contrasty patterns confuse my scanner into a 3D look.

Really good work everyone !

Sapata, I love the tones in your black and white.
Calbisu, the depth of field and the contrast is really dramatic. I like it.
Andrea, awesome picture ! You should 'not' shoot landscapes more often ;)
Blaxton, Nice self-portrait. I love the serious face in front of a crazy mural.

Diane, you are very kind. I shoot the old people after work (that sounds most odd, but, I'll leave it in) the Holga is light so I can carry to work and if the weather is kind I spend an hour stalking the old and inform of Bath. I figure that the dodgy hearing and eyesight work in my favour!

phil, you had told me about shooting the old people on your walks home.....during a phone conversation..so everytime I see a bit of your "secretive selective focus"... :) :) I visualize you quietly walking up to them and snapping away!
