Very nice start, as always.

This Wednesday was my very first time photographing fireworks. I used the Bronica with a tripod and a roll of Portra 400. 30 Second exposures. I wish I could have gotten a wider perspective but the place was packed. Both shots taken in Philadelphia.

Just wow Miguel!
I've always wanted to do those type of shots, but I don't do crowds well, so glad you took the time and made it happen!
Well done.

Another week of archive diving as I make another attempt to find a comfort level with digital imaging. One of the neighborhood children, now somewhat older, at our annual Independence Day breakfast.

Nice firework shots Miguel.  Here’s a few cars that need some TLC.  Kodak Medalist with Tmax 100 developed in beer.

Something that is both wide and slim—great marketing ploy.  The photo is great as well.  I am picturing a large sculpture of children's toys fused together.

I’ve made many pictures of the sweeping views of the Mondego River floodplain from the castle walls at Montemor-O-Velho, Portugal.  Yesterday, I decided to walk through some of the valley agriculture fields, looking up at the the castle.  Depending on how much water they let into the fields, they grow rice or corn (or other products).  It’s a simple setup and, apparently, very effective.

Nice weekend! I especially like Kai's low angle shots. Here is some Ektar in my Ondu Multi in 6x12 mode.
