A friend is making another friend´s portrait, and I took the portrait of them both

I had not used the Pentax 67 for a while, and it showed out.

I recently watched a Sam Abell talk on YouTube... the man really pays attention to detail, micro composition. It forces you to go back to your pictures, that´s when you realize there is much ground for improvement.

More fine arts, more fine arts!!

I was at an art medal conference last weekend which included a casting workshop. Medals are often in cast bronze but this time it was cast iron. This is the first time I've put a meniscus lens (the rear element of a 105mm, I think) onto a 35mm cam, an MZ5n. It was mounted on a coarse helical ripped untimely from a dud zoom lens (see, zooms are sometimes useful) and had a cutesy little cardboard stop stuffed on the front - it was F.something or other.

One of the artists carving into the surface of a silicate block.

Firing up the furnace.

Fuji Acros in DDX.

Hi!

Amazing, Sandeha! Can you post a photo of the "transformer" ;-)

I tested a "simpler" gear, a Olympus XA. Wonderful little camera.

What do you mean by 'transformer' ??

02Pilot · « **Reply #5 on:** April 28, 2017, 01:23:34 PM »

I was also testing, if not experimenting, this week. Two shots, one each from cameras that I worked on recently.

First up is the Hexar AF I resurrected, as mentioned in the "I just made/fixed" thread:

And next one from the Canon VI-L I picked up in rather dubious shape (light leak, dirty, speeds off) and gave a full CLA. Lens attached for this was a Nikkor 85/2.

Both on HP5+ in Caffenol C-H(RS).

I should start a "to hell with focusing" series

Until then, here's the next in the series...

I tested my PPPF camera (Polaroid Packfilm Pinhole Frankenstein camera) in preparation for Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day. I tested it with both Fujifilm FP-3000b and FP-100c. I metered the film with the Pinhole Assist app on my iPhone which automatically calculates the reciprocity for the type of film, it works great.

Beautiful pictures again this weekend. Like the artist portraits!

I hope I get some decent stuff out of the roll I'm about to develop today. Loving Kevin's stairs and Antonio's girl in stripes!

Great start to the weekend as always!

I just started developing at home earlier in the week, here is one from my 2nd roll.

Here's one I just developed, shot last weekend when Union Pacific 844 came to town to celebrate our train depot's 92nd anniversary (Leica M3, Summicron 50 rigid, Neopan 400):

Just catching up with scanning - here is tree blossom - GW690iii - Neopan400CN - expired 2005 - seems some light leaking at the edges - strangely there's a greenish tint at the film edges - lab issues?
Not sure I can find where the focus was set.

Here's an image taken with an AGFA ISO RAPID, using Provia 100 expired slide film re-spooled into the special cartridges - Sunrise over Bucharest / Romania. I like the nuclear type halo effect, taken on the "cloudy" setting.

Here are a few pinholes from this weekend.
And yes, they are in three-dee

Too bad I didn't have any close subjects to try it on.

Weird weekend in many ways. FWers site is all over the place, I can't count how many different members I've "been" and it still seems far from sorted. Hopefully, someone will get a grip of the situation soon. In the meantime, here's a couple of cyanised Holga photos from Dungeness:
