Summer Weekend 14-16 August
« on: August 14, 2020, 05:49:07 AM »
Haven't started a weekend thread in a long time. Over here it has been very hot recently - up to 37°C (99°F). Tried to cool off a little by having some walks in the deep forest - and a large ice cream on the way home.

This one is with a Speed Graphic and Tmax 400 in one of my favourite patches of woodland.

A lovely tree study, Manuel.

Here are some pinholes taken earlier this week at Seaham in County Durham, North East England.

Nice start To the weekend Manuel and Kevin!  These were shot in the Palouse with a Ricoh Diacord L using Efke IR 820 and a red filter.  Developed in Rodinal 1:50 for 11 minutes.

California is unfortunately still struggling to contain COVID-19, so I am stuck taking photos indoors for the most part. Here is, at least, some plant life to remind me of the things that live outside the walls. Taken with an Olympus OM-2 on indefinite loan to me by my father-in-law. This is actually from my first roll of 35mm in about 25 years (all my own cameras are 120 or larger formats), HP5+ developed at home in DD-X.

I've been out with a new lens on the Exakta VXIIa, the Scheider-Kreuznach Curtagon 35mm f4.0. Shot on Rollei Retro 400S.

great start guys!
It's nice to be able to travel vicariously through you all!

Bryan, I had to look up that Ricoh Diacord because I'd never seen one. That's pretty sweet!

Mine's from earlier this year when we could still drive around with the windows rolled down and move freely about the world....
Road trip to Tucumcari with a stop in Santa Rosa, NM. It has a nice old section of Route 66.

Yeah, still cooped-up inside. Last week we had insane weather. The thermometer shot up to the low 50°C... never seen that before.
Mom took a picture of her infrared thermometer showing 134°F... it was unbearably hot and very humid. I went out for 5 minutes to pick-up the laundry on the line and felt sick for part of the day.

So these are from the week before.
Good old Arista 400 in the Blackbird Fly.

Also, the geese are a crop, but they were about 20 feet away from me. Two of them were watching me ready to sound the alarm. But they just for tired of me not doing anything.

I tried some pinholes for the first time in years with the Noon multiformat 6x6/9/12- need a bit more practice I think
