I've had the good fortune to be able to borrow a 40mm and 250mm lens for my Kowa Six . So off I went on my bike for a trip through the

mountains in western B.C to try them out . The field of views were an example of extremes , both pictures taken from the same place . I was

sure before starting this trip that I'd end up NEEDING both of them :) . It was a struggle to use a single roll of Delta 100 ! For the life of me ,

I couldn't ( or can't) take advantage of either of those focal lengths . More film is where the money not spent will probably go .That's my

rant for the day . Peter

From a recent ride around the mountains of Central Pennsylvania with my vintage motorcycle & vintage camera. Hasselblad 500cm, 80mm Planar lens. Totally loving this Ilford Pan F Plus 50 film.

More messing around with close-ups & my extension tubes; this is the #16 tube and 80mm Planar

Nice bike. I have a 2014 R1200R

Thanks, I like this one. I have a couple more, a 2002 K1200RS and a 1974 Norton Commando.

 

I'm remembering now that I rode over these mountains that day and went quite a ways afterwards. Eventually my front end felt funny anti turned out I was very low on air pressure in the front tire. Fortunately by that time,I was just outside a small town. I limped about, finding an air pump at a local convenience store. Pumped the tire up and rode all the way home, about 25-30 more miles. New tires went on the bike shortly after.

 

^^ Nice looking road to ride :) . Peter

 

Yes thanks, it's lovely, one of my favorite local rides.
