Mike, those chromes are wonderful. They must be a joy to hold up to the light.

One more from me, playing around with a yellow filter on the Hasselblad. (Tri-X)

Great shots everyone and one day soon I will get on the ball so that I can submit a few of my shots.

Sterling Castle Scotland by Britt A, on Flickr

Just scanned another roll from the trip to Scotland this spring. This is from Sterling, a view over the castle. Used my lovely red Recesky, and I must say I am happy with some of the pics from it. Other is just learning trash...

Paul+Holga=Really good! Looks like you enjoyed yourself

I also fell for Nick Moys landscape and Becky's Route 66.

Peter, lovely work. The placement of the gull in the second is perfect.

Fantastic weekend thread all around. Terry, calbisu, jojonas, Nick: stunning.

Still trying to get the hang of my Great Wall:

mmm, enjoying the infrared shots very much

I have got to find me some interesting locations (and good weather!)
sean, liking the view and perspective on that last shot.
Jj: those great wall shots don't look half bad even. Did I miss something about telephone boots?

great stuff Peter, had a few holidays there as a Kid, good memories!

astrobeck · « **Reply #65 on:** July 01, 2012, 04:22:47 PM »

Jack- cool! Where did you finally find the payphone? Also I really like the transit of Venus shot too!
Magnus- you and infrared are meant to be together, love all the shots!

Diane- what kind of tin can did you make that 4 x 10 pinhole out of? You're getting good results from it.
Peter- echo what Phil said, that gull in the second one is fabulous. Perfect timing and love the angle of that roof! Wow!

Super weekend thread. I wish we could all just go on a roadtrip together-that would be so much fun!

Actually, I swore at the gull for getting in the way and took another one. But then I liked the one with it in. That's how it goes sometimes I guess.

Diane Peterson · « **Reply #68 on:** July 01, 2012, 05:14:03 PM »

Becky, I used a very old (10 years) tin I found under my grandaughters bed!! It been filled with peppermint candies

..at first I was hoping it was 5 inches tall so I could use 5x7 but then decided to try the 4x10 (8x10 paper) cut in half obviously! I do have to put tape around the lid cause I think it's been bent a bit so I get light leaks..prolly 6 inches focal length..
The second image was shot under less than ideal conditions..I knew it was way too bright out for the look I like but had to try it anyway.. and thank you both for the kind words..

calbisu · « **Reply #69 on:** July 01, 2012, 06:41:51 PM »

Diane, Yay!! I love that first one!

Phil Bebbington · « **Reply #70 on:** July 01, 2012, 07:00:37 PM »

Diane, the first one is stunning!

calbisu · « **Reply #71 on:** July 01, 2012, 07:44:33 PM »

Ja, ja, Diane, I just realized those are your friends!!!

Jeff Warden · « **Reply #72 on:** July 01, 2012, 08:05:24 PM »

Bravo, Diane! Really cool.

Diane Peterson · « **Reply #73 on:** July 01, 2012, 08:44:27 PM »

Thank you all so much!
I actually have a new "friend" that I just finished..she is very beautiful! I actually made two new ones, but one was a birthday gift for my daughter..She is "Freida kahlo!

Jack Johnson · « **Reply #74 on:** July 01, 2012, 11:28:05 PM »

Love them, Diane! And thanks, Jonas!

Thanks!

I kept scouring my brain for places where I knew I saw payphones in the past, and keep lurking in places where there would have been a phone: outside downtown bars, convenience stores, etc. There's a place locally that's off the beaten path that used to be a roller rink, I should check there, too.

This one is on the off-side of an old convenience store. I would be willing to bet that it's been disconnected and someone forgot to come remove it. But thanks to your postcard, it's now an obsession.

Hello Zelda! hehhe, Diane do you make these mannequins?

Diane Peterson · « **Reply #80 on:** July 02, 2012, 03:07:14 PM »

Yes Suzi, I do! I am that desperate for subjects to shoot! They are so much fun..I made some about 15 years ago and then stopped..Now I am obsessed with it again..Gave the other ones away years ago so had to make new ones..Luckily we all where the same size so we can share clothes!

Thanks guys, it was in my camera since last November – my last roll of Neopan 400. I've been shooting colour recently so the B&W roll stayed in my Rollei T all that time only to be developed last week-end.

Thanks again

I think this weekend thread is the best, since I joined FW. Can't pick favs, so many and so good!

astrobeck · « **Reply #88 on:** July 03, 2012, 07:33:40 PM »

Mark, wow, that's is a VERY nice portrait!

I hope you print it, it's perfect!

First time I actually had a chance to check the weekend thread since I've arrived... and It's great as usual!! Hope to be able to join the fun soon

calbisu · « **Reply #90 on:** July 03, 2012, 09:31:12 PM »

Mark, that´s a beautiful portrait I am sure she is fond of

Photo_Utopia · « **Reply #91 on:** July 04, 2012, 12:00:47 AM »

Thank you guys. She was an exchange student that became part of the family, very nice girl. All I need now is to buy some paper similar to Agfa Portriga rapid (ivory base warm tone) I'm leaning to the Foma range. I have e-mailed her the shot. I will send her a print, a photo isn't real until it's printed (unless its a positive)
