I don't know why the image did not show, Ivoire. However, I've found the original file, dropped it in Picasa and edited my post to reflect the change.
Things should be back to normal

And there it is! Looks like summer to me, appreciate the effort

Thanks for the entries everyone, we are 1/3 of the way through so keep them coming! I already see few candidates...

Wow, a summer feel in winter. Perhaps I should relocate

I also use DxO by the way.

Summer is wherever you can find it!

DxO is incredible. Was driven to it by the lack of MX1 profiles in Lightroom and am now using it as my workflow's first stop instead of LR.

Now that's a summer feel al right!

My first submission: With Samsung Galaxy SIII.

A photo of my 8x10 setup. Laptop bag contains film holders, dark cloth, loupe and spotmeter. ISO 80 F/2.6 1/280, 3.7mm focal length.

A beautiful day out indeed, Erik!
Quite a camera!

The LCD has outstanding resolution...but I find it's too dark. Sometimes I have to put a cloth over my head just to see the image

You could always get a faster lens

Keep the photos coming, there are only few days left.

Even at F/5.6 (wide open) she's pretty dim. When I want to check focus stopped down to f/45 I need to use a dark cloth and a loupe just to see anything.

I think it's the fact that the ground glass is 100 years old and doesn't have a fresnel or anything. A modern ground glass would no doubt help.

Pentax Q, 01 8.5mm lens at f4, 1/800, and 125.
thanks

Great summery pic barondla!

Bart · 08-28-2013, 09:25 AM

Beautiful summer scene, barondla!

unixrevolution · 09-02-2013, 11:47 PM

It's over!

I hope Nuff hasn't just gone bibbledy trying to decide who won
