Hello all,

I recently received a Yashica Mat 124G and took it for a walk downtown Grass Valley and shot a roll of Ultrafine Extreme 400.

I developed in HC110 B

The camera came from Goodwill and everything seems like it is in pretty good shape except for the shutter release was a little sticky on the return but is getting better with use.

Here are some of the first photos, in one of the photos there is a dark spot upper left corner but only on the one ???

Nice results from the Yashica, Don. If the film was developed on a spool in a conventional tank I'd suspect the dark mark is caused by an air bubble, trapped in the spool. I occasionally have this problem but not consistently, and it can be annoying. There's a theory that setting the tank down with a bump after each agitation will disperse bubbles, but I'm not totally convinced.

As things seem a little slow on the thread this weekend, I'll post a few frames from one of my beloved Canon T90's, with the Canon FD 35-70mm f/4 lens that Ken Rockwell described as looking "like my dog dug it up in the backyard". But he did go on to maintain that it's an usually good performer, an opinion I'd endorse. The film was Arista EDU Ultra 100 developed in PMK Pyro and scanned on an Epson Perfection V800 Photo using Silverfast 8.

Thanks Rick

I normally do tap the tank after the inversions, on this roll when I finished and opened the tank and pulled the reel the film was rolled all the way up on the reel so I thought I might have a problem, but only one photo seemed to have any major issue.

Getting close to the old city of Toledo, Spain. Pentax Spotmatic with 35/2, FP4+ processed in Beutler.

Since we are in Carnival down here, an old picture of a local candombe group (Gozadera), in the Malvin area of Montevideo, Uruguay. Olympus Pen EE-3, probably Fuji 100 consumer C-41 film, with a cheap flash unit

The male dancer was a top one, won a lot pf prizes.

And to keep things moving, a few from a roll of Tri-X I finished and processed last week.

Rising water just east of Cedar Bluff, Mississippi. Minolta XE-5, 90mm f 2.8 Sigma Macro, Tri-X

Our area is not facing as severe of a flood danger as other parts of the state, but still had even higher water later in the week.

Looking in opposite direction, same gear

One more

Looking across the road. Same gear.

These photos were taken just after 7 A.M. on the way to work.

H everyone. I had a couple rolls of film processed and got the scans back recently. One recent roll, and one from October, it seems (from the content). I still have a couple rolls from the past few months that I am slowly sending off to the lab, in batches of 1 or 2 at a time, meanwhile I'm shooting more!

Anyway, these are more pix from our January trip to Vermont,

shot on Fuji Industrial Color 100 film using the Voigtlander Bessa R3m rangefinder camera with its 40mm f1.4 Nokton Classic lens.

I had a goof-up when I opened the doggone camera to find I had yet to roll up the film into its cassette after completion of the roll! Fortunately the bulk of the 36 exposures survived but I lost some for sure.

Here are some shots of some old barns and outbuildings on a back country farm in Southern Vermont. The light was dropping off pretty hard and these are long-ish exposures. A couple of the it seems I didn't exactly nail the focus, tho I was mostly shooting either wide open or close to it, so maybe I should have gone to smaller apertures, like f8 or something?

This is by far my favorite- I can't put my finger on why exactly but I love this photo!

crazy red bark birch tree. Not sure f this was s one sort of fungal thing or a disease but I've not seen anything like this before.
