Every roll seems to have a top end and a bottom.

Love the contrasting tones in the second one Sandeha. First from me in a while, back garden just after I'd topped up the bird jacuzzi!

Really like the first one Sandeha. And I also like the stark beauty of Phil's sunny rural Texas shots.

Yesterday it was thawing out after a long winter. Yet today it started snowing again.

And from my DIY Pinhole camera, built in a weekend

Thank you, the camera feels like the biggest point and shoot in the world and drew some funny looks from people

Yeah, cameras like that are not called Texas Leicas for nothing.

That's a wonderful start Sandeha!

Here's another from my Smena camera...

Swan on the Grand Union Canal at Uxbridge - Olympus Trip 35 & Kodacolor 400CN. Just cropped to a letter box format.
This was quite close up about two metres and I had the distance symbol for group selected. Still amazed at the quality of this little camera.

Jeff Warden · « **Reply #12 on:** April 11, 2013, 09:02:34 PM »

I've got nuthin' this week, so I went to the vault. This is my son, probably exposed in 2006. Contax G2, 45mm Planar and some slide film I forgot to make note of.

Lately my most popular topic is children

first a friend of my daughter, when I first looked at it I had no idea who was or who took the picture, well it was me but I just did not remember it. The second one is.... little Alma (the one with the star

) with her little friends at school, yes the one on the left looks menacing

A shot from a less than tightly rolled roll of Portra 400 from the Lomo Bel-Air.

Terry · « **Reply #17 on:** April 12, 2013, 01:58:22 AM »

And they're off!!

A couple from last weekend in the Bronica SQ. These were 6x6 but there was a slight light leak in the bottom corner (I think I found the culprit--a bad piece of foam) so I cropped them a bit. Actually, I like them better cropped. First two are a surreal batch of mounds in a field--trees, actually, that had been sawn down and then fed into a chipper and piled up for collection. Third is on a local lake during a rowing race (with ducks). First and second are Ektar, third is Portra NC.

I notice that there was interesting camera right outside the doors... well it was not really a camera, it served as a status indicator for "do not disturb' red led and room clean up green led.

Wow…. The boy will love it when I show him later (spare print going)…

Anyhow, lil CJ was pulled out by British Cycling to ride for level 3 instructors yesterday (reserved normally for teenage racers) and amongst the contingents was Julian Dean (recipient of the infamous 2010 Tour De France Mark Renshaw head butt when at Garmin).

He was stoked taking instructions and chatting with the Kiwi.

Great work everyone!

Last weekend I managed two printing sessions, and somehow, I ended up printing only old negatives from last summer. Here is a couple - sorry to those who have already seen it on flickr..

But when I'll get money, I'll probably a VC meter, or a Leica Mr meter, but I'll first feed my latest GAS, the Polaroid 350.

I developed the film today and here are some colourful results.

Yglotte - I think you've got the hang of finding the right exposure with what you have.

Here's some from Whistable on April 2nd taken using a new acquisition (another one) - Hasselblad Xpan - the first with the 90mm lens and the second two with the 45mm lens, HP5+, Prescysol EF.

A few more shots from my Oly Stylus. I still feel it is too new for my liking and this may be the last roll from it till snowboard season returns. I think I prefer one of my XAs for a small camera. But the Stylus are dirt cheap these days.

Note in the last shot the timestamp was not turned off. I did not pshop it out as I think it is funny that it is set to '89 - I might leave it on to confuse my future generations ;-)

Diane Peterson · « **Reply #37 on:** April 13, 2013, 09:38:02 PM »

using some new paper for my pinholes today! I like it but not familiar with it enough to get consistent results..Oriental Black & White Paper...VC-RC pearl...

jojonas~ · « **Reply #38 on:** April 14, 2013, 11:16:36 AM »

inspired by sapata's smena shots, I dug around to see if I could find any of the shots I had taken with my smena 8m back in the day.

this be a panorama of my hometown, umeå

I gotta get me a Smena too. Great results from the plastic camera. I've been
busy this weekend. Here are some images from yesterday's walk.

Thanks, Terry. I have indeed developed those myself in Tetenal C-41 kit. I'm already at the 10th roll and the
kit still develops strong.

Here are some more if I may usurp the thread that much.

Great pano Jonas and the market shots are awesome Fluminian... I guess the Smena camera is a bit underrated... the lens are just fantastic and the carry case is so well made that put on shame some of the best well known brands.

So, here's another from the same roll!

Fluminian · « **Reply #45 on:** April 14, 2013, 03:28:19 PM »

Thanks a lot sapata and another great shot. I don't know if that characteristic colour is the merit
of Smena or the film you're using.

sapata: I'd forgotten all about that case! that was some sturdy stuff

They say only change one constant at a time, I chose to change four.

GP3 in Rodinal, a first
New pinhole, f304?
GP3 reciprocity, no idea - but used FP4+ as a scale
Modified shutter

Shot and souped on Friday, scanned today

The under bridge shot is 150s, the boat 120s (corrected)

Just back from a long road trip through Texas...

homemade pinhole camera, paper negative marinated in caffenol for 4 minutes ....which is my usual treatment these days.

Exposure was 2 minutes.
