Film Camera Week for September 28

M3, Porta 160.

 

Prolly a Pentax and Provia. Mainly for the humor anyway.

 

Looks like downtown Tacoma.

M3 / Portra.

 

Looks like downtown Tacoma.

Actually, outskirts of Portland, OR. Though it could be Tacoma …. or Seattle these days.

Prolly a Pentax and Provia. Mainly for the humor anyway.

 

Here are four from last week's expedition with a Mamiya 645 1000s. The lens was the Mamiya Sekor 55-105mm f/4.5 and the film was Ilford HP5 Plus developed in PMK Pyro.

My first try with a 35 mm. Took Dad's AE-1 to high school way back in 1978. Another Fave Teacher from Mississippi State.

And another.....Learning how to use that camera 40 years ago was a lot of fun.

As many of you are aware, I don't do 'likes' (believing as I do that 'comparisons are invidious' especially given the very high standard generally), but I have to say that I am blown away by this week's thread.

This has got to be one of the best efforts ever. I don't just like them, I love them. Garlands to you all!

 

Or am I just getting 'soft' in my old age? o_O

It is called "The Muse" but neglects to say which one.

Great shots, everyone. The flowers are nice, JDM. I must confess it took me a while to be on board with the "like" system since I've never done Facebook or any other medium that has that option.,

Moving On- great color in those school photos. When I was in high school that fastest color print was Fujicolor 100. The 400 version became available where I live around the time I graduated. Kodacolar II at the time was only 80. Did take a few flash photos with the S2 and Sunpak 201, though. I did try pushing some High Speed Ektachrome to 320 but fluorescent lighting wasn't kind.

Looking forward to seeing more images.

Hello

A couple from this past weekend with the Fed2 chrome Jupiter8 using HP5 from bulk and HC110 dil. H

Just trying to get back into it after a move and setting up the developing area in the new place.

A little grainy.

The Agfa Solinettes & Super Solinettes are great folders!

 

I'm sure they are! But this is my Solinette--and it's not a folder.

Friday's Farmers Market was held in exceptional weather. . . almost 77f, dry & sunny, with little wind. A day before, and after, Fall once again claimed the weather reporting. Several vendors did their homework ( on the local weather) & brought out a late summer push of offerings. Here are a few. All work with a Fed-2 / Jupiter-8, UFX400 film, developed in Obsidian Aqua & scanned on a V800. Enjoy, Bill

During the warm summer, a group of young people running a Co-Op farm offer this herb tea mix gratis, hoping you might buy a bag of the mix. It has enough to make 5 gals (that's the container size), so I purchased a bag. . .should last the winter in my quart size mixes.

Another item offered at this time of year is hand made caps. Here in wool, with Alpaca Fleece available on special order. . .a bit dear but ohh so fuzzy & warm !

Next to these peoples stall, is my Fudge Lady ! Hand made and she offers about 15 flavors each week. My life line to Hawaii (coming up soon) , as she mails the fudge !

I will miss the farm fresh eggs from Baker's Acres, but a friend in Hawaii also will offer some hen fruits. Aloha from the Mainland, Bill

Thanks Bill. The fudge dipped marshmallows were a "delicious looking" conclusion to last week's thread. Looking forward to seeing more Farmer's Market photos.
