Seems I'm starting again.

Looking good, Peter. I guess they're waiting for high tide?

Some color from a mid week walk.

One from a forthcoming photo essay.


Any man who can see what he wants to get on film will usually find some way to get it;
and a man who thinks his equipment is going to see for him is not going to get much of anything.

Happy Friday! Lovely shots, everyone! Jeff, we'll have to meet up in Philly at some point and do a photowalk around.

This one was taken last summer in Philly with Tmax 100 developed in Ilfosol 3.

This one, in Philly again. Used Portra 400 and a polarizer filter.

Nice start Peter, I'm surprised they allow them to beach ships like that, I think you would get a huge fine if you did that here. You would probably also damage the ship on our rocky coast. 

Nice colors Jeff, I just sent a few rolls of Velvia to the lab, I'm hoping for colors like that. 

These were shot on my hike with James last weekend in Palm Springs.  This was my first roll through my Kodak Medalist and I like it despite the fact it weighs over 5 pounds.  Kodak TMX 100 developed in beer.

Thanks guys,

Bryan I've really fallen for E6. It's much easier for me to scan it because I have the slide right there to remind me of the color when I made the exposure. I have moderate color blindness so scanning color has always been a frustration.  E6 to the rescue!

This location has the second highest tidal range in the world and when the tide goes out, it goes out about 1 mile. So you would either need a deep harbour that remains flooded even at low tide, a very long pier that reaches out at least a mile, or boats become beached at low tide.

Did you use a filter on these Bryan?

Yes, yellow on all of them.

Here are a couple more from Palm Springs. I think this shot has the same rock as Bryan's 2nd shot.

A mile!  That's amazing.

Great start guys!

Mine's my periodic foray into making little lunas with Harmon direct positive paper hand cut and put directly in my K1000 w/ 1.4 Pentax lens then held up to the telescope to make a "one of" photo of the Moon's light.
I develop in caffenol one by one, so it's a tedious process, but when it works it makes me giddy!

Fancy lens that I hadn't used before, but I figured it might be nice to defocus it for a few shots at this empty and open castle in good sunlight.

I really like the photos from James’ and Bryan’s walk in Tahquitz Canyon.  Extra points for lugging the Medalist around—seemingly well worth the pain.
Becky's moonshots inspire giddiness. 

Some street work from me this week.  The first two in Córdoba, Andalusia and the other two in Óbidos, Portugal.  Disclaimer:  all four were on the street, it’s true, but the last was a more-or-less willing portrait.

Good stuff once again this weekend!

Everyone's talking P3200 these days and this remindeded me that I had tried a roll in the mid-90s, exposed to ISO 12500 using my then trusted Prakika MTL3 and just working out the stops in my head. And I managed to find the negatives - with just a note saying "TMZ @ 12500", so no details as to development but I think it was in the region of 30 minutes. Something for the grain afficionados!

Great photos everyone. I really like the street saxophonist's portrait, Miguel, the lighting is just excellent. I also really like your Tahquitz Canyon shots, Bryan.

Thanks to Reinhold's advice I finally found suitable developing times for Fomapan 100 in Caffenol-C-H (RS). Here're three photos, all shot with a Canon F-1.

The breadth of subject matter, styles and treatments showcased in the weekend threads never cease to amaze...

Becky's little lunar prints this week are a delight...

My effort is a recently scanned image from a roll developed back in December.
The last frame on a roll, exposed without a plan, just to get the film out of the camera and into the dev tank...

Went to Montreal yesterday while the weather was nice.
Found a nice mural (too bad the pedestrians walked too fast out of the frame) and a blue house!
