Classic Manual Camera Weekend, May 13

<p>Anyone know about Q.G. de Bakker? I am worried he had a sudden acute event and I hope for the best.</p>

<p>Thanks, <strong>David</strong>, I really fell for that little spaniel pup. The leader of the pack was having a morning coffee. Yes, <strong>Donald</strong>, when you get to grips with Silverfast I think you'll find it the better software. <strong>JDM</strong> and <strong>Brad</strong>, I feel pangs of envy...</p>

@Michael Loved that Bass player wit hthe Jazz Bass.. I almost heard it! @JDM lovely all black.EXA .

looks like fun! @Brad.. always willing to help a neighbor out :) BTW with B&W you will be amazed at how

easy this really is--then lookout! @Rick .. I woldn't think the scan and print would be different... but I do like

the tones especialyl on the bench... Perfect!!

The last time I posted one picture from the Werra ..this time I will post 3. This is a Werra III (rangefinder) and

to my delight I found my Zeiss/Voigtlaender filter fits this Tessar too. This filter was a freebie from a fellow

CMC user! This was done in Rodinal (new for me) and scanned using my ur-alt Epson 1640US. I may have

manually dust spotted these and tweaked the levels. The last picture is under-exposed but the clouds are

dramatic..but the scene was not that dark.<div></div>

View to the City.. my standard view<div></div>

The other direction<div></div>

<p>Just got these printed - first time with b&w for Petri Racer. <br />Quite happy with this camera, need to use it a lot more to get used to him. <br />Ilford 400 I think<br>

<p>What you do not see <strong>Chuck</strong> is the heavy rain, was soaked to the bone and poked with umbrellas all day. Certainly seen no sign of spring besides the fun dancing of the local kids :) <br>

What a calming image <strong>Julio</strong>.</p>
