Bettendorf Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 BNSF 1571 leading a 5 unit lash-up, pops into the late afternoon sun as it cants hard into the high speed curve west of Catoosa, Oklahoma. The Fireman gives me the obligatory eye-ball to be sure that the only thing I'm shooting way out here is a camera. 9/14/1998, three years after the BN/SF merger. Canon A-1, FDn 50/1.4, Kodachrome 64. (processed by Kodalux, Dallas, Tx. ) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim_bielecki1 Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Spectacular display of the Northern Lights last night. Unfortunately, clouds moved in for us, but I did manage to take a few pics. The sensor sees more than the human eye, but the colors are good. A lot of reds! Canon RP with FD 35/2.0. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_bielecki1 Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 I noticed some geese hanging around a local wetland, so lugged my tripod to a good spot, and took some pics. Canon RP with FD 500/8.0 mirror lens. This lens is well suited to digital. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danac Posted May 20 Author Share Posted May 20 I've had the T6i since 2016 but neglected it after 2018 when film processing was revisited. That marvelous FDn Macro 50/3.5 was my wife's favorite lens back when she so ably employed an AE-1. Since I almost invariably expose only black and white landscapes in film cameras, the macro was not used for decades. Now I've got a "new" toy and adapter to play with that doesn't involve negatives, chemicals, tanks, trays, enlarger and print paper. Yesterday was my first attempt with it. I didn't quite know what I was doing so I set the camera meter and lens to manual and got some okay results. Digital is so easy it feels like cheating. And there is the immediate gratification factor. 1 A book's a great place to hide out in - Trevanian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danac Posted May 25 Author Share Posted May 25 Four folks besides myself have posted some very nice photos this month so far. 513 have visited this month's thread. Of that number .97% have actually posted something. Just sayin''. 2 A book's a great place to hide out in - Trevanian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_bielecki1 Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 I didn't take this picture. A friend of mine died several years back, and last weekend his daughter gave me a box of a few hundred old 35mm slides and negatives from the 1970's. He shot with a F-1 and several FD lenses. Here's one taken someplace in the American west. Probably a FD 50/1.8 lens. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim_bielecki1 Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 One more from my (deceased) buddy. Their old cat. It really did have eyes that blue. F-1 with (probably) an FD 100/4.0 Macro. The Kodachrome slide was in terrible shape. I managed to make it passable. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
