MX, M100/2.8 I think... inspired by Stevebrot's pics of Birch trees.

Ha! Ha! Nice job!

I was starting to think that I was a little bit crazy shooting tree bark, but at least one other person finds it interesting. Of course, maybe it is a regional affliction.

Funny you say this. I was just having a conversation with Steve and said the same thing in another thread.

Test roll from my new MZ-5n body. The lab scans were garbage so I'm gradually re-scanning on my Dad's Epson V500.

Fuji Superia 400, FA 50mm f/1.4.

Steinback · 02-27-2010, 12:15 AM

Thanks Steve.
I liked your idea of doing a Portland area get together.

No crowing or griping or wishing or fighting--just a lot of shots that showcase the pure joy of photography.

Yikes, I found the post, and you pretty much said that, too!

Exactly right...This thread and people here are really about ''photography'' Now how strange is that to have in a photo forum

This gentleman saw me in the street with my Rolleicord Vb an asked me if I wanted to make a photo of him.

Did he get a print?

Very nice. The tones are perfect. What was the time on the developing?

Blue · 02-27-2010, 05:50 PM

Agnostic, that is truly a retro image taken with a vintage classic.

It looks like it could have been taken 40 or 50 years ago.

GeneV · 02-27-2010, 06:19 PM

Snapshots in the bath are treading in dangerous territory. In many ways, this not really my best work, but somehow I like it.

Thank you! Developing time was 1 hour in Rodinal 1:100 with a minute of agitation at the start and a swirl after half an hour.

Thanks! He didn't give me any contact info. When I said I had the shot he waived and walked on. I guess he just liked seeing someone working with a vintage camera.

Daughter took this when we first got the Yashica Mat

Probably Fuji 160S or NPS, b&w converted

Here's Fuji 160S in proper color, Yashica Mat 134G:
