Particularly the b&w. It's good.

My one shot this week (it has been a week from hell, both domestically and at work). The only respite was a visit by an old friend and his partner. So a shot of his partner - monochrom, go to 75mm lens. I took shots of my friend, but, age does weary and the years do condemn, and also play havoc with visual acuity, so they were blurry beyond use. Regards, Arthur

That's good Stric. A bit melancholic - youth. Going on an adventure. Heidegger once asked what was the work of art (I do not countenance Heidegger's politics). He said 'it calls'. Your photo 'calls'. It's good, and tells a story. I am glad you shared it. Regards, Arthur. Where was it taken? Bravo to you. Arthur (apiarist1)

Here's a Summicron 35 v4 on a Panasonic GX7.

Thanks Arthur. It was taken last spring in Minneapolis, MN, USA. One of those rolls of film from a while back and developed only recently.

My bad... put this in #44. Aloha, Bill[ATTACH=full]1316626[/ATTACH]

Ahem. I liked it in #44

I will be indulgent. We have had today our regrettably National Horse Race - the Melbourne Cup (I cannot fail to understand how people will bet their life on what a horse does, let alone two dozen of them. But there you go). It is a 'tradition' that women wear 'fanciers' for the cup. It is a tradition that passes. The monochrom can't really handle highlights, as you will see. I keep it at -.3 exposure compensation (though it does have a mind of its own and will often self adjust). So some photos from the galah event - when in doubt, don't back a horse:

A few with my Canon IVs I don't believe I've posted. Serenar 50 f1.8 and Elmar 90 f4.
