whoo! weekend~
nice start JW. I actually like how all three are void of people. like there should be someone there, but they just left.

My boy and I went a walk to see a tree planted in memory of his Great-Great-Uncle Bill.

En route a stick was found and a molehill prodded.

Uncle Bill would have been proud

'new' Canon P, 35mm lens and trusty Tri-X

Chops

I agree, that what makes them great

Two more from Kong Kong, POlaroid 195, Fuji FP100b

For sure they though I was completely nuts when they saw me shooting at them. Climbing on chair, going down, moving the chair, climbing again... the one in white was a cook that was taking a break behing the restaurant, the other one is a shop with a ver old printer, light was really poor and doing my best for both the printer and the man to fit in..

That's a marvelous capture, Chops, and beautifully framed. Those fingers.

Great start

Here's a few of mine from the first roll of Tri-X I've had back from my new "toy" (Nikon F2S + 35mm f1.4 / 105mm f2.5). The scanning was done by the lab - so pretty crap. However, I have no time this weekend - off to FA Cup at Wembley on Saturday and, hopefully, recovering from a Man City win induced hangover on Sunday...!!

The first two are Cambridge "Dons" and Students / Socialist Worker protesters in Cambridge. The third is a river that runs through a village in Thetford Forest, Norfolk. All processed via Lightroom 2.

Lovely images (as ever) already posted.

- J Warden - love the first shot. Really nostalgic looking
- Diane - beautiful tones and very moody
- Chops - kids always make the simplest things look like incredible fun. Superb shot.
- Calbisu - 2nd one is the best for me. Very dark and mysterious
- Phil B - as ever, superb tones and sooooo sharp.

I'm liking Windy's oil tanks.

I've got a bit of a glut of Ridgeway pics at the moment so a few more...

Such wonderful images to start the week and oh Peter, that last tree is tops!

Jeff Warden · « **Reply #13 on:** May 13, 2011, 09:27:45 PM »

Peter, I love that last tree image. Looks like a Magritte

Harvey · « **Reply #14 on:** May 13, 2011, 09:39:24 PM »

Keeping the Black and White going, I've been down to the sea again! Weather was abysmal but salvaged a couple of long exposures. FP4 in the Mamiya 330.

Phil Bebbington · « **Reply #15 on:** May 13, 2011, 09:52:25 PM »

Peter, loving the last one!

Chris A Fraser · « **Reply #16 on:** May 13, 2011, 11:37:45 PM »

I shot this, after being inspired by a recent thread about holding close-up attachments in front of your lens. This is shot on a Polaroid 680 with a Holga 250 close-up lens.

Peter, Peter, Peter!
That last tree!
Incredible!

A pinhole from last weekend's road trip ...I have a few more, so will drizzle them in for the next few weeks.

Phil Bebbington · « **Reply #19 on:** May 14, 2011, 08:16:11 AM »

Love this, Becky.

Scans from a holga roll I did on the royal wedding when I was getting drunk in a large marquee/tent instead of in the middle of the field as planned.

Still stupidly proud of this. Honestly I only did this in 1 take. Action Holga!

The boar Maclaren. He's not F1 that's for sure.

lovely work once again. these thread really make the week

more polaroid goop & gigs from me.

Nigel · « **Reply #23 on:** May 14, 2011, 03:09:33 PM »

Great work everyone. Harvey I love the skies in your shots, great!

These are some shots from WW Pinhole day, taken on a homemade camera inspired by Miles's wide 35mm.

I had chores to do at home that day so thought I'd just document my day. So in order of appearance - doing the ironing, some ripe Camembert for lunch, coffee brewing and a touch of gardening (actually, thinking about gardening!).

Nigel · « **Reply #24 on:** May 14, 2011, 03:10:00 PM »

Sorry I had one more ...

astrobeck · « **Reply #25 on:** May 14, 2011, 04:14:11 PM »

The Boar Maclaren! Love him!

And Nigel's uber wide pinholes are tops! Love shots that are ear to ear wide!

Diane Peterson · « **Reply #26 on:** May 14, 2011, 06:01:21 PM »

Nigel..those are just about the most beautiful pinholes around! Would love to see that camera...I am glad your keeping busy on the weekends..

Suzi Livingstone · « **Reply #27 on:** May 14, 2011, 08:09:32 PM »

Great work everyone, Diane love your spooky shed...

and those pigs are lovely!

Terry · « **Reply #28 on:** May 14, 2011, 09:58:21 PM »

LD--I love the Nikkor 105mm
Peter & Harvey--those are just meticulously crafted images
And Heather--that's proof positive (if proof were required) that a pint will do you no harm!

Here are a few shot with the Exakta and a Schacht 135 on Neopan SS: the first one was a video crew I happened upon as the director was arguing with the videographer about how to shoot a scene. I empathised with the patient crew members waiting for the outcome so they could get back to work...

Curiously, looking for a place to shoot the below this morning, we happened upon a similar scene - with the crew though staging a run through of a car chase climax with the police jumping from their car, guns drawn, as the perps looked confused in that Japanese confused perp way.

As we watched the scene, a real two-up patrol car cruised passed, spied the scene, and we shared a good laugh...

On a fine Spring day we stood and marveled at the vast expanse of modern Tokio.

Nigel, those color pinholes are just wonderful. A box with a hole in it. Amazing. :-)

Ditto that--very futuristic in a retro kind of way.

great as always.

especially like the texan petrol station and the hong kong and tokyo pola's.

The Pinhole Beck, very nice

Ooooh and Harvey's Mam 330's

Miles · « **Reply #38 on:** May 15, 2011, 11:16:55 PM »

Two from the Toyocaflex TLR that I bought at last year's Photographica, both in Conwall this Feb, the B&W monkeyed with in GIMP.

The other is from a late fifties (as it was my Mum's) Brownie 127 Mk2. My brother found it in the loft at my parents and it had a film in it that must have been from 1979 when she gave it to me for a primary school trip. Just got a few pics, seeeing if I can get any more out of it

I adore the color of that photo Phil.
That red is killer!

original_ann · « **Reply #41 on:** May 16, 2011, 01:18:48 AM »

Fabulous photos! Oh my word that red, Phil, that red!!! And Harvey you beach scenes are fabu-lush!

In the last week I've developed 8 rolls of color. I've got 4 more and I"m done. Trying to scan at the same time. Here's a (665) polaroid positive from today - just being silly.

On a side note: anyone know how to best scan the 665 negative? I don't have a negative holder to use in my scanner and not sure what type film profile I should start with (I use silverfast).

cheers!

Test of the 50 pack case of Polaroid 108 film on the front lawn flower bed.

nothing like sprucing up an average photo with the uneven spreading of expired developer goop!

calbisu · « **Reply #45 on:** May 16, 2011, 02:42:25 PM »

From Kong Kong, a 1996 669 film. When I was buying the remaining 669 film from IP I did not realize at time about the great disaster that was coming upon us.... But I still hope that land film will be produced again. Yes! $:-\$

Phil, that image is a winner!

I finally managed to scan the first roll from my Nikon F90X that I shot in January. Luckily the images are fine, otherwise the other 10-15 roll I shot with the camera would have been wasted
