Horses in winter: IIIC w/ 90mm Elmar, Tri-X

Recommended Posts

Of interest, here's a landscape shot I took last last winter. Just scanned the negs. But the

atmosphere & the grain is attractive, & an example of what a 60 year old camera w/ a 50 year

old lens can produce.

 

This was hand-held, probably at f8 & 200. Metered on an old Luna Pro. Opinions welcome, of

course!<div>003ZQ9-8954484.jpg.735c0840dd8956875a056d6bb0b45018.jpg</div>

Hi, Patrick !

 

Thanks for sharing your photo. Great example of what old Leicas can do when properly handled. Certainly this is no easy to do photo, specially when using the tools you used. Aside from the technical issues I really like the aesthetics of your image.

 

Congratulations and thanks again.

 

Best regards, Patrick

Patrick: A beautiful photo! Most of the bread and butter horse

magazines (my closest friend is a breeder of thoroughbreds in

upstate New York) would NOT have the taste or imagination to

publish such a photo as they focus (no pun intended!) on

close-up photos of the animals (for sale.) No harm trying

however!
