Film Camera Week for July 14

Starting next weeks thread. As many photos as you like from your film camera. I'll start.

Hermione, Pentax MX with 50mm macro, Eastman 5222

 

Hermione has been one of our family for 13 years and is facing exploratory surgery later this morning of which she will likely not awaken from. She will be missed. In addition to the love, purring, and fun she always seemed willing to pose for a picture.

 

One I posted earlier.

The Fujica AZ-1 turned out to be a good choice for a classic travel camera. The accurate aperture-priority auto exposure makes it fun and easy to shoot with, and the 43-75 zoom is surprisingly useful, despite its limited range.

Wishing Hermione a happy result and a speedy recovery. She's a lovely kitty, and reminds me of my late lamented Picasso, who was also a willing model.

Thanks, everyone for the well wishes for Hermione. Unfortunately the cancer had a strong foothold on the colon and had spread to several other spots in the colon. Please forgive if I post a few more photos of her from time to time.

Great images, everyone, btw.

My sympathy, you can't help but miss them.

Thanks, James. I enjoy the photos you take around campus.

I'm sorry to hear about Hermoine, Mike. She's appeared on the Forum so many times over the past few years that I feel she deserves an Honorary Membership!

 

I'm still housebound by the tail end of a winter storm but I hope to get out if the weather clears in the weekend. Meanwhile, here some architectural photographs I took earlier in the week featuring our local museum, a building I rather like. The camera was the Mamiya 6451000S, the lens was the 55-110mm Mayia Sekor C f/4.5, and the film was Ilford HP5 Plus developed in PMK Pyro.

Hello Mike

Sorry to hear about Hermoine

 

Was she named after one of the ships in British history? Being either the Spainish? prize out of Cadiz or the British ship that suffered the mutiny?

Sorry about you cat. We lost ours 4 months ago to cancer. Its hard to lose your pet.

Thanks, Don and Ross. She was named after Hermione Granger of Harry Potter books.
