<p>Excellent Howard! I am going to continue with a selection of film images from a while back (sorry, I just haven't had the time to get out and take newer pictures!). All of the following were taken with a Minolta SRT-102 (black) with MF 50mm f1.7 using expired Fujicolor Super HQ ASA 200 film. Film was developed in a hand tank using JOBO C-41 chemistry and scanned on a Canon MG8120.</p>

<p>Howard, your first picture is very well framed and enjoyable to study. Mike, your film technique is great. Makes me envious.</p>

<p>Temp is 1 deg F so not much going on but the kitchen window was frosted with ice crystals and the screen made moire patterns. When processing this image, I noticed that zooming out made the Moire more intense. Anybody have an explanation?</p><div></div>

<p>Thanks for the compliment Randy! The wind chills have been in the negative area for the last couple of days so I know what you're talking about. As far as your moire question, hopefully someone who is far more knowledgeable than myself can give you an answer.<br>

Mike :D</p>

<p>I am trying to send a sample of the Moire pattern. It didn't work. Might be an interaction is PSE.</p>

[howardstanbury]

<p>I'm afraid I don't have an explanation for the moire either. Although I was raised on Fahrenheit we have had Celsius for so long here now I find it difficult to visualise how cold 1F is, though when I do the calculation, -17C is cold! What I do know is that -40F is -40C, which I hope none of us get ...</p>

<p>Howard you are sooo right!</p>
