I like the frame-within-a-frame-within-another-frame composition there Dave!

Here are a couple from last weekend's walkabout.  Tried Peter's suggestion of making a carrier to lift the neg 2mm off the glass of the scanner and the sharpness was noticeably improved.  (First is FP4 in Rodinal, the second is Efke 100R in HC-110B and both were shot with my Gundlach Korona 5x7)

I like that second shot Fluminian! I thought "hey, Fluminian took a picture of a plant!

Keeping with the boat theme these were both shot on the Oregon Coast earlier this week with a Rex Laboratories 4x5 press camera and a Graflex Optar f/4.7 135mm lens.  The film is Ilford Delta 100 Semi-Stand developed in Rodinal 6-750ml for 1 hour.  The swing set was a 4 minute exposure shot on a cloudy night with the only light coming from a few lamp posts and hotels on the promenade behind me.

Wow, Bryan, that seaside swing picture has an eerie feel to it. It almost looks IR and reminds me of the atomic test videos. Very cool!

Thanks Chad, I was going for eerie feel.

The ship skeleton makes me think of pirates.  Were there pirates on the Oregon coast?

[limr]

No boats from me this weekend, but a couple of street shots from vacation in Slovenia that I'm finally getting around to tweaking and uploading.

I don't think there were any pirates on the Oregon coast.  The Peter Iredale was a four-masted steel sailing vessel that ran aground trying to enter the Columbia River on October 25, 1906.  It's been stuck there in the sand ever since.  My wife and I have both been going out there to see it since we were children (not together when we were children).  We both have childhood photos of ourselves at the wreck.  It's fun to go back and see what still remains of it.

Thanks Satish. I missfocused.   

[ManuelL]

Really like those swings Bryan!

Just some leafs from me. The 2nd one is a test shot with a gold & blue polarizer. The effect is not as bad as I was afraid it would be, although trees are not the ideal subject for this filter.

[Fluminian]

Is that just half of a boat Gary? Great shot by the way.

Bryan, that a beautiful image, but just a "reliquiae reliquiarum" of a boat.

[gsgary]

No it is a full boat called a Lugger

Thanks Fluminian, I learned a new phrase today.

Tanks for the "lugger" shot and information, Gary.

I like the frame-within-a-frame-within-another-frame composition there Dave!

Thanks, it is a not unprecedented idea in depicting the ruins of a church building, it goes back at least to Turner in 1794 as you can see in the thumbnail of his picture of the ruins of Tintern Abbey on this page:

Really enjoying these photos. These are my contributions. Taken on the roof of an abandoned building and inside said building with my free with a magazine panoramic camera.

Well, I keep thinking I am going to develop film, but then get sidetracked. Here is one from the archives a few months ago since I can't stand not contributing.

First photos in a while. These were from my test roll in my new Fed.
I'm pretty impressed with the sharpness of the lens... less so with my processing. It's the first time I get junk on my negs in a very long time. I'll have to clean the lab really good.
This was on Arista.EDU Ultra 400 exposed at EI250 and processed in HC-110 Dil.E

Yes, my rescued racer. I've never known a gentler breed.

A couple of instant shots from me. The first is the product of being stuck in the house with an itch to go out and shoot. The second is a crop of a shot in my instant pinhole instruments series. (now there are two shots so it's a series right?  )

Now on to waste some film with my new Rollei 35!

[astrobeck]

It's Friday, so I went to a bar...but it was closed! 

Superwide 4 x 5 Santa Barbara pinhole on Delta 100, sloshed in caffenol.

Really like the retired racer photo.  Love those dogs!!!
Also as a bonus, I met up with TinTin in Albuquerque for a quick chat.  Nice to put a face to the name!

[Indofunk]

A Dano!! I have a sweet 12-stringer, a 90's RI (not the crappy 2000's RI ) I wish I knew how to play guitar

[02Pilot]

Kertesz's train arrives in Poughkeepsie, 77 years later. Canon P, Canon 50/1.5, HP5+ @ 200 in Caffenol-C-H(RS).

I have a 3 Dano guitars and this one Dano bass seen in the shot. I'm a drummer, but I can play a little rhythm guitar. If I can do it...

[Hungry Mike]

in my new Fed

Are those pics with a Industar-61? Curious as I picked up a Fed 3b with one recently and I'm anxious to try it out (waiting on a take up spool as my example didn't come with one).

I have a Tele clone, an Ibanez jazzbox, a Jerry Jones electric sitar (the "baby" version without the jhalla strings), and a Fender jazz bass in addition to the aforementioned 12ver. The bass is the only one that I can play with any modicum of skill. Oh, I also have a drumset

Did you know today is World Cassette Day?

Yep, it's taken with an Industar-61. Mine's a 53mm non-radioactive model (it's not the N-61L) with the zebra pattern casing (alternating black and chrome bands).
Let me tell you, the sharpness of this thing is really something else!

[Adam Doe]

Did you know today is World Cassette Day?

No, Francois, I had no idea.

Like the pic. Very nice, somewhat romantic shot.

[jojonas~]

I've got "real" internet again!!! and some film back that I sent away for developing (nice to try that once in a while)

so yeah, two shots taken with a mamiya 645 1000s gifted to me from my father in law as a wedding gift

it's a bit of a challange holding this big lump of metal with the prism and no grip. so far I have figured out how to hand hold it for portrait shots pleasantly. trying to shoot the 80mm 1.9 wide open and I seem to get some near misses. hm..

the second shot is with the 45mm 2.8

[Peter84]

been busy last couple of weeks but managed to do a test roll of Double-X trough my newly acquired Rollei 35S. Bulk loaded, shot it @1600 and souped it in Rodinal 1:20 for 10 minutes, but the grain is a little too much for my taste. I stopped using Rodinal for Ilford films because of the same problem, think double-x doesn't like either, so think I'm gonna cook me up a nice batch of Xtol, that stuff has never let me down

I've got a fender strat and a fender acoustic and some brandless classic spanish guitar. I only play rhythm and a couple of solo's

The world would be a better place if Fluminianitis spreads among more photographers.

Cheers I bought 4 rolls to try but I'm getting some more at £1 a roll you can't go wrong

[SLVR]

Nice set of contributions from all. Astrobeck's and Jonas' stand out to me. Love that f1.9! And astrobeck being out here and seeing so many cool abandoned places it's great to have an analog counterpart to go with all the visual stimulation I've seen here. It was nice to meet you as well!

thanks very much, Francois.

Was out and about in Amish country, but not much to shoot. Just lots of tourist junk. But found some stuff back in civilization.
