Thanks Allan; lots of water has flowed under the bridge! Great to see you're still capturing stunning images.

They are good. Very good. Arthur (apiarist1)

So my contributions. Initially, two shots of our local 'greengrocers'. They specialise in organic vegetables. They have recently sold - one grows old, as we all do, and her health cannot sustain the work demands. Both with my monochrom and go to 75mm voigtlander (aka cosina) lens.

The last is from a 1936 zeiss super ikonta, using 'aged' HP5 (a roll I found that has been lying around for over two decades, unrefrigerated). Developed with Ilfosol 3.The zeiss has a stiff focussing wheel. I think its degraded grease in the lens helical. Still usable, but barely. Just about ready to lose skin trying to focus. If anyone knows of a website that can tell me how to dismantle and re-lubricate it, I'd be very indebted. It is a shot of 'funeral lilies'.

Thanks, Arthur (apiarist1)
