Hello All,
Here's my entry for the month. Taken with a Pentax Optio I-10, 5.0mm (28mm equ.), f/3.5, 1/50s ISO 500.

Great shot of great equipment, Ron

Bart · 06-14-2013, 08:44 AM

When I saw some of the first post, I was beginning to feel a bit 'peculiar'

:

I have and have had only 1 digital P&S: Panasonic FX500.
I also have 1 film P&S: Minolta vectis 40 and that one, I got from my daughter when she went digital. That was actually also the camera I shot my last roll of film with, back in 2008.
So, I must admit I'm really impressed when I see the more or less extensive lists of cameras here

I thought I'd enter 2 with the Panasonic and 1 with the Minolta.

Panasonic FX500

Minolta vectis 40

Nice photos, Bart. Especially like the B + W conversions. What PP did you use?

Bart · 06-15-2013, 01:32 AM

Thank you, Ron!
For these I used Silver Efex 4 from Nik/Google as a plug-in from Lightroom.
My favourite tool for b&w.

Nice pics, Bart. Your third tends to prove you're not only B&W, but that colors fit you as well.

Bart · 06-19-2013, 09:57 AM

Thanks, G.T

I agree with GT. And, there's something about that Minolta shot that keeps drawing me in. Its inviting. I want to go there.

Pic 1
Taken with a Samsung Galaxy SII. Did some post processing with Pixlr-o-matic
Have to see if I can find anything else worth submitting.

Pic 2
Yashica Electro 35. I forget what film was used. The picture suffers from some motion blur, but I like the police cruiser in action

I kinda like this view on camshafts and driving chain

ivoire · 06-21-2013, 11:16 AM

Great pics from everyone, like them all! This would be a nightmare to judge.

Bart · 06-21-2013, 11:55 AM

Thanks, Sue!
