Farthest north Filmwasters meetup?
« on: October 03, 2014, 05:34:14 AM »
It was just BAC1964 and I, but we're planting the flag at 61º 13' N latitude.  :)

Where are you, jojonas? Gotta step up your game!

Bryan brought his Rolleiflex, I brought my Nikonos, we ate, talked MF, LF, Rodinal, GAS and repairs and now I owe him a meal. And probably a hike.  :)

It was great meeting you Jack, that Nikonos is a cool camera.  I ran up to Glen Alps after work for a short hike to shoot off the rest of that film before I head back to a lower/warmer latitude.  It's not often I can call Seattle warm, enjoy the snow.

sounds good!
I've been saying that I need to visit a friend up in Kiruna (67°51′N) before they move the town due to the mining industry there.

the farthest I've been was Boden at 65°49′32″N but that was back when I was drawing and not playing with cameras :P
