I'm just about finished developing films exposed during the last year.  Just three more rolls and quite a few sheets to go.  These are from a trip to Dublin (Tri-X) and Lisboa (HP5+) made in an Olympus OM1.

Cycling and a grumpy 14 year old Mexican teenager are preventing me from processing any films, though I'm shooting a fair bit, so I've nothing new this week end (and won't have until September).  So here's an old one from a walking trip to the Picos de Europa many years ago.  Shot with a Nikon F3

Sandeha - great shot of everyone looking up. Very surreal...
Blaxton - love the spire shot.
Tin Tin - that pavement shot is great - quite dizzying.
Calbisu - gorgeous blue tone on that Pola 108
Diane - a dreamscape. Gorgeous as ever.
Kenny - a wonderfully relaxed pose and lovely muted colours.
Miller - sweet, moody shot.
Irv_B - great shot of the balancing act.
Andrej K - love that sepia tone and high contrast.
Harvey - space hoppers always make me smile and the toy above / to the right is awesome.
Charles Binns - that shot is stunning. Looks like it's fro the 30's.
Calbisu - A cracking good portrait.

Mine is a shot from Morocco a couple of weeks ago. To escape the searing 46 degree + heat of Marrakesh, we took a bus trip to Essauoira, 120 miles to the west and on the coast. About 15 minutes before arriving at Essauoira, the driver pulled over and showed us a place where goats have learned to climb trees to get to the fruit from which "Argan" oil is produced. Apparently, this only happens a couple of places in the world. Still, it was a pretty odd sight.

Got myself a Pouva Start from e-bay the other day. Just because it looked so sweeeeeet.

From the first roll, a bit disappointed, the pics are not bad enough, but I guess I have to try harder next roll :)

really liking the variety this week. some stunning work

Charles. lovely shot. we can easily forgive you that its old. its just great
calibsu - stunning shot. love girls in jumpers :-P
Kenney, as I said love girls in jumpers but also beautiful shot otherwise, quite like unconventional portraits where the subject isn't looking anywhere near the camera :-)

blaxton, love your work especially the first two
andrej K, that shot is really interesting. find I can stare at it for a long time.
LD loving the goats in a tree :-) so cool

any all the pola work its great also. anyone not mentioned your work is also great, this thread is always superb.

more redscale from me I'm afraid. some handrolled Kodak 200 in an olympus XA 2 (first test drive on the camera) loving it.

Happy Weekend everyone!

It will take me a while until I can post something but I'm glad I can browse in here and see lots of beautiful work.
Well done Ken... I though the colour of the jumper fits perfectly with the atmosphere. And yes, she reminds Laura Marlin...

I really love the girl on the East London Balcony shot too and the goats and space hoppers as well. Also Andrej K's crosses.


Mine is on Fomapan, at the beach Rolleiflex.
There's more to this photography thing than meets the eye.

What a great selection of images ...again!

I am working on a set of images captured during a recent visit to the Anglo-Zulu battle site of Isandlwana. The old church was captured with a pinhole camera on Fuji Acros developed in Hypercat HD.

Have a great weekend.

Regards,

Lawrie.

Love the shot of the sand at the beach Mark.

One more from me. This is a bric-a-brac shop set into the ramparts at Essauoira. Rolleiflex 3.5t using Kodak Portra 160.

Kenny & Harvey - lovely shots.   Here's another old one.  This is Wadi Rum in Jordan.  Shot with a Nikon F3.  Taken during a cycling trip through Jordan about 15 years ago.

Great shot Diane!

I love old signs of all kinds, especially theatre marquees!  Here are a couple taken with a Holga.  The "Liberty" marquee is in Vandalia, Illinois, and the "Elmo" is in St. Elmo, Illinois

Favourites so far are the Lisboa shots and the mud shot. Many other great photos too.

This one's from Southwold on a very rainy day. Fuji FP-100C in a crown graphic with 135mm Optar wide open at f/4.7. Handheld.

Lovely images everyone.  It's amazing what can be done with a Polaroid, isn't it?

This one was from last week on lake Erie in Cleveland, Ohio.  A wonderful day for sailboats.

Excellent capture! Almost hard to distinguish - is it low-key colour or very successfully toned BW?

BTW - try to get the original mamiya strap - it is exceptional quality - durable as well as soft to wear all day.

It's Acros at 200. Developed in xtol 1+1 then scanned and toned in lightroom. Guess I'll make a real copy of it sooner or later.

Great weekend thread, as usual. One final one from me.

This chap was the most polite Moroccan we met on our holiday - a really charming gentleman. He spotted me in Essauoira with my Rolleiflex around my neck and came and started chatting about this and that. He clearly liked the camera, so I asked him if it would be okay to take a quick snap of him. He seemed delighted for me to do so.

Rolleiflex 3.5t with Kodak Portra 160.

agreed. Its really good. I had to order more. Hopefully i get it soon. On a side note, heres some FP4 through my recently recalibrated Yashica Electro 35 GT. Theres a couple light leaks it looks like i need to fix. The glass is stupid sharp compared to anything else ive shot. I cant wait to get my canonet QL-17 recalibrated so i can take that puppy for a spin.
