Canon FD Photo of the Month: November 2015

[Alex_Es]

<p>November is upon us. The days are suddenly shorter and colder. Time for the heavy jackets and the fast lenses. FD (and FL and R) shooters, you are asked once again to show us your stuff. Any good Halloween moments? Autumn leaves? Or anything else like portraits, creatures and the Moon? Share the wealth of your photographic genius with us!</p>

<p>All I have for you is another dang cat. Canon EF + FBn 100-300/5.6 L.</p><div></div>

<p>November is a gloomy month around the Great Lakes. I took this with my old Canonflex with a R35/2.5. On Tri-X.<br>

BTW, Altes was a regional beer brewed in Detroit late 40's/early 50's.</p>

<p>Nice prop, Bill - it contrasts nicely with the colour and softness of the bird.<br>

Found 5 more rolls of Provia 400X at a small local camera shop, so I can enjoy this film a little longer.<br>

The shots below were taken at the famous shrine at Nikko:</p>

<p>My trip to the big city. Canon F-1 (original) FD35/2.0 (Thorium) on Tri-X.</p>

<p>A trip to Greenfield Village, in Dearborn, Michigan. Canonflex with R58/1.2 lens. On Ektar 100 film.</p>

<p>Very nice shot Jim, relaxed poses and the side lighting models the scene well.</p>

[Alex_Es]

<p>Really outstanding work everyone. Whether birds, cats, nature or exotic places so far everything has been first rate and fun. <br>

I did this cat yesterday around Akashi Castle. Used a Leica M 240 + FDn 80-200/4 L. Outstanding lens. No need for Photoshop. This is right out of the camera.</p><div></div>

[jim_bielecki1]

<p>Last from our trip to Greenfield Village. The pic is hardly a work of art, but what a pumpkin! Again, Canonflex with R58/1.2, on Ektar 100 film.</p>

<p>Hey all. I will post some more photos of my continuing adventures with the FL 55/1.2 I picked up a little while ago. Those of you who follow the Mirrorless Monday threads will probably be familiar with these. All photos with the FL and Sony a7. Hope you enjoy.</p>

<p><strong>Canon FDn 24-35/3.5.....an outstanding lens !<br /></strong><br>
