Phil - Love the inclusion of the OOF fence in the first image and the feeling of dereliction in the 2nd.

Dave - S'funny have just been admiring these on flickr. Makes me regret selling my XPan now!

This is Alex, a good friend of mine, he spent last weekend at our place; yesterday he had a bike accident in Barcelona and now is being treated

All the best to you my friend.

phil: good thought! as always liking the feel in your shots.

donker dave: saw that tunnel shot on the fw tumblr and fell in love with it right away~~~ both shots are really making the most of the widelux I think

paul, one could say that those shots are buttering me up

hehe, joking aside though.. they look terrific!

calbisu: my wishes to go with. I hope he recovers without problems.

here's two of mine that I dug up from the archives..

I'm liking the cinemascope stuff. Last weekend I went stalking this cool derelict barn on a farm near my house. I can only see it across the field in winter when the vegetation is gone. Also getting familiar with my Korona 4x5 camera. And I discovered a slight leak in the lensboard, so there's a blue cast to the bottom left. But I like this exposure anyhow. It's on Ektar using a 300mm Schneider.

That last one is beautiful, Paul.

I'm continuing my Dominican sex worker project with, after the first introductory series of them at work, a second series off work. Here are a few from a couple days of shooting one of the girls I've become friends with.

Just a stellar weekend thread, everyone. Truly.

Poliweb · « **Reply #21 on:** February 09, 2013, 03:37:59 PM »

A couple of weekends ago I borrowed a camera that had belonged to a friend's grandfather. It's a Voigtlander Prominent that I dated as being from 1934. Only 4,000 of these cameras were made between 1932 and 1936. Although it had a few dents, the 10.5cm F4.5 Heliar lens appeared to be in good shape and the Compur shutter sounded ok. The rangefinder was way off, so I guessed distances or paced them out.

The friend told me it was probably last used in the 1970s - so it has sat idle for more than half its life. So I shot a roll of Ilford Delta 400 through it for old times' sake. Here are a couple of shots from the roll - one being the inevitable unintended double exposure that's so easy with this type of camera. There's also a shot of it on my mantlepiece.

Terry · « **Reply #22 on:** February 09, 2013, 04:03:34 PM »

Richard, that's a fantastic find. Any plans to tune it up and use it? I'll bet that when it's properly calibrated it performs brilliantly--even guesstimated the result looks very good. I'm increasingly being won over to old (even uncoated!) lenses.

Well, I'm going to test drive my friend's other vintage camera shortly - it's a Voigtlander Bessa II from the early 50s. I suspect that this will more likely be the camera I choose to tune up and use. We'll see. I agree with you about old lenses - lots of character.

moominsean · « **Reply #25 on:** February 09, 2013, 07:06:28 PM »

I haven't shot anything new the past couple weeks because it has been too cold and the days too short...I sure miss this right now!

hookstrapped, you make the best friends!

Nigel · « **Reply #26 on:** February 09, 2013, 08:10:00 PM »

Peter, I always love what you show us. Great series.

Andrej K · « **Reply #28 on:** February 09, 2013, 11:24:56 PM »

Some terrific images this weekend - Paul's and Dave's shots stand out for me...

I've just came ouf of the darkroom after some five hours of paper wasting - hopefully I'll be able to scan something tomorrow when the prints are dry and still catch up with the weekend thread...

hookstrapped · « **Reply #29 on:** February 09, 2013, 11:38:57 PM »

Thanks Phil (and Sean

The closer I get, the more trust I gain, the more I believe in my premise going in -- that these women, all young mothers with children to support in a country that doesn't offer much economic opportunity, are deserving of the utmost respect. I hope to drive that home with the second series that I'm working on. And with the third, which I plan to be documenting one woman's trip to visit her children and family, across the island, back home in Santo Domingo.

Thanks Miller.

The strategically placed object is in fact a bin. I must've shot several rolls worth of frames of that wall over the years - glad I got this one.

Just the right amount of expired and cool enough temperature I think. I sandwiched these in my camera bag in a pocket between my leg and the bag so it didnt keep it super warm but had warm contact as I was walking along. I was shooting Expired PX Cool film!

ahem... hello.... you probably don't remember me but I used to live here once.

couple of shots from a weekend in London visiting friends. for my friend Jaega's EP cover :-) was a bit gutted as they are slightly out of focus but she seems happy. I was really rushing to be fair, had a lot on my mind. anyway hopefully I will be getting lots of old stuff developed soon so may actually have something to upload

Yep! Thom I remember you. Did you miss us?

Can see why she likes the 2nd one. The skin tone is nice.

What have you done with the other? Reticulation? Was this from the same roll as the 2nd?

Welcome back.

Two different but nice images.

woo not as forgettable as I thought.

they are both the same photograph, both polaroids fp3000b, the top one is the scanned negative. that was just how it looked when I inverted the colours.... strange but I much prefer the contrast and the texture from the neg
