This chap seems to be on our wavelength

[h._p.]

Found this site while looking for Takumar lenses. Judging by the captions, his

equipment falls within the forum's period and I was very impressed with the

images...

Damn, H.P. I've almost gotten to the point where I hate it when someone finds a new website and the photography is actually quite good. It's so much easier when it's crap, and one doesn't have to look through the whole damn thing.<P>This one is pretty good, but I think that a little Infrared soon goes a long ways.

Oh yeah, I forgot to say "Thanks for bringing it to my attention." Bill.

He is rather keen on his HIE, isn't he? It was the other stuff that impressed me, though.

 

:-)))

H.P., I tried it again for another look -- still very nice.<P>It didn't occur to me the first time through, but his work is remarkably similar to the late Fay Godwin's. I wonder if there's a lot of cross-polination, or just from the same areas they work(ed).

Yes, thanks for the link. He has something for sure. I like that he uses the Spotmatic and all kinds of Takumars, I'm in love with this system. Last but not least I like what he does with the 20mm Flektogon. I have one of those too but unfortunately in Exacta mount and my Exacta Varex started showing its age (I think sluggish courtain). Will need to have it CLA soon.
