First play with a Polaroid M403R passport camera. Four Different shots on one print... Bargain...

Decisions, decisions?

Off for a couple of weeks so here, by way of an "adieu" is a square crop from a Canon F1-N using a 200mm f2.8 - whilst walking down Regent Street in London a couple of months ago:

Both make me smile.

I remember those 4 in 1 Polaroids, had my ID card taken with one in 1990, and the person taking it said I looked like James Hurley in Twin Peaks in it. I was made up !

Oh that was a long time ago ...

Two signs taken during today's (85km) bike ride - One makes me angry the other makes me smile - I'll leave you to decide which is which.

Miller, that shot scares me.

Scanning stuff from before the rain, chili prawns, cha-han, and two bottles of Tsing Tao from last weekend...

多謝! Skj.

Still catching up with scanning! Holga with red filter on Kodak bwcn. Arkansas

calbisu · « **Reply #9 on:** September 18, 2010, 12:33:37 PM »

Noominsean, love that second one. Interesting building.

Phil, great tones there

Two from the Pentax 67, in Mallorca. Using Portra 160nc 220 which is quite Ok, having 20 shots instead of 10. Very little editing on the first one, none in the second one (oh my god, did you say no editing - yes doctor - that could be dangerous - indeed - is there any cure? - There is none - I knew it!! - You should go back to digital, I am afraid -But... I cannot!!! Coming from digital I am starting to like the raw film look, and trying not to saturate or contrast too much.

Phil Bebbington · « **Reply #10 on:** September 18, 2010, 01:58:53 PM »

Well, Calbisu, whatever you are or indeed are not doing is working. That first shot is wonderful, the colour is outstanding.

Have just started to scan some of my pinholes taken on a recent jaunt to sunny Suffolk.

Taken on my Zero 2000 with PanF and souped in Prescysol EF (partial stand)

Have a jolly weekend

Paul

Phil Bebbington · « **Reply #12 on:** September 18, 2010, 03:37:34 PM »

Love the shot, Paul. You might want to upload slightly smaller as it isn't all fitting on the template.

Friday with Alastair Cook and his wife Emma Franks - I need to work out which I keep and which they get - the choice is harder with the image of Emma.

Phil Bebbington · « **Reply #20 on:** September 18, 2010, 11:56:54 PM »

Miller, I'm digging that.

Carl, wonderful stuff. 2 and 4 and just wonderful.

LOL! Was just going to list all my favorites in my post until I realized I was writing down everybodys name. HAHAHA!!! These are all so wonderful!

Windy · « **Reply #23 on:** September 19, 2010, 10:29:22 AM »

Another thread of great photies. Particularly like Suzi's Holga and Paul's pinhole shots

Keeping with the 'road' theme here's another 2 from Friday's Bike ride taken using my Rollei 35B - both are 'A' roads

Hi all,

Just developed a roll of Tri-X in my usual 90 minutes stand in 1:126 HC110

Here's a snap of some greenhouse merriment, the highlights look awfully light! Does it look right?

What could have caused that? Other than the film's latitude to all those different shades? Has it been well developed?

(Don't worry about it looking blurred, I think that's to do with my scanner!)

Chops

Paul Mitchell · « **Reply #25 on:** September 19, 2010, 11:01:17 AM »

Thanks for all your kind comments on my pinhole everyone.

Suzi - Love the Holga image, timeless... could have been taken in 1910 not 2010

Carl - Your images are an inspiration as always!

Windy - love the feeling of desolation in your images... am up in the outer Hebrides in Nov so may bump into you on the bike... well not literally... otherwise I'd be arrested wouldn't I!

Paul

LT · « **Reply #26 on:** September 19, 2010, 12:50:37 PM »

a great show already this weekend. Paul - a superb first-post pinhole pic - keep them coming please

Carl - all four are great, but I prefer the close-ups. Just seem to work better.

I, as per usual, have not produced much in recent weeks. I promise to do better in the future.

Alan · « **Reply #27 on:** September 19, 2010, 01:44:03 PM »

Nice weekend work by all . . . again.

Holga + Shanghai100 + Caffenol-c + pushed 2 stops

I've got to say I'm with Mohave! Haha, I wish I could list everyone!

Phil! That inky sky is a dream!

Sean and Calbisu - love the colors

Carl - All are exquisite, but I have to say I have been lost for what seems ages in the beautiful close ups of the faces...

original_ann · « **Reply #29 on:** September 19, 2010, 04:46:32 PM »

Been scanning all week... last month's beach pics

Mojave · « **Reply #30 on:** September 19, 2010, 05:07:52 PM »

Those shots are awesome Ann!!! Wow. Is that a tilt-shift lens on a Polaroid camera?

CarlRadford · « **Reply #31 on:** September 19, 2010, 05:24:40 PM »

Great images Ann!

Ann!! Love them...so sunny and happy, i want to be there.

Just taken on the SX70..nightmare film or i'm rubbish but sometimes i get something i like.

vicky slater · « **Reply #35 on:** September 19, 2010, 06:58:53 PM »

Carl, did you decide which ones to keep?
I'm just curious :)

Phil Bebbington · « **Reply #36 on:** September 19, 2010, 07:12:12 PM »

Vicky, it's shite film, cus you ain't rubbish!

choppert · « **Reply #37 on:** September 19, 2010, 07:54:57 PM »

Ann

OUT-STAN-DING!

CarlRadford · « **Reply #38 on:** September 19, 2010, 09:15:34 PM »

@ Vicky - my thoughts are 2 and 3. Two is obvious and 4 would always have been my immediate choice apart from that being predictable and I need to break this habit to some degree. Emma's clavicles (?) and pendant are very strong. Any thoughts?

Miles · « **Reply #39 on:** September 19, 2010, 10:47:25 PM »

Crikey, masses of great stuff, the colours with Calibisu and Ann especially.

Sue's Holga, Windy's roads, Skoj's blur and, and, and. Will scan some colour from the Canon SS A1 I "wore" when scootering to Dieppe last week.

Miles ...

vicky slater · « **Reply #40 on:** September 19, 2010, 11:31:56 PM »

Carl, good choice, I agree...2 without question and also 3 for the reason you said (i tend to choose closer too but try to think to pull back sometimes, it's hard though) but also because i think 3 is a stronger picture, it has more directness and interest than 4, imo.

vicky slater · « **Reply #41 on:** September 19, 2010, 11:33:14 PM »

Phil, it's such a shame, i really love the camera but i feel like i might as well be pretending to take a picture for the results i'm getting.

original_ann · « **Reply #42 on:** September 20, 2010, 01:15:42 AM »

Thanks everyone! I shot FP100 C med format in my 4x5 Speed Graphic with the Aero Ektar lens

Made a lot of friends on the beach those days

still working through my negatives from lithuania. here's one taken in Vilnius' "autonomous free zone" I like. I can't remember what the area was called, and I missed the memorial statue of Frank Zappa !

Mojave · « **Reply #45 on:** September 20, 2010, 04:05:57 AM »

Ok Ann, Im on the ebay hunt to find out what just exactly what you're talking about because right now, I have no idea!! LOL!

And Vicky, that shot you posted is totally awesome! I think I know what you mean about feeling like you're only pretending to take pix sometimes. I get like that with the Holga and now with the Polas. But god, do I love the Polas. I had no idea I was going to love them so much. I never liked them as a kid. I cant believe I didnt like them. What was I thinking?!!!

Miles · « **Reply #46 on:** September 20, 2010, 07:34:19 AM »

On the way to Dieppe. Expired Kodak, Canon SS A1.

Have to agree about Ann's Polaroids... wonderful! I can just imagine no.3 as a huge enlargement

Paul

calbisu · « **Reply #48 on:** September 20, 2010, 10:28:50 AM »

Ouch!!! Ann, I will not repeat what others said, but... I need a speed graphic with aero ektar and pola back just now!!!!!! : )) Love the second one, and yes, hang on my wall would look sweeeeeet

original_ann · « **Reply #49 on:** September 20, 2010, 12:31:31 PM »

Wow Calbisu, Paul, Mojave - thank you for the boost of confidence

I had looked for a solid 9 months before I put her altogether over 2yrs ago.
