Two more old ones, but this thread has inspired me to load the camera with something other than Provia or Astia.

Cesare, Jai is excellent

Joe, Provia and Astia give you nice colours but Neopan, Pan-F & Acros etc can give you so much more. WHat did you use on that last one because it is ace

Paul, Muz, Pete - also good stuff, looking forward to some more

Mike, I didn't realize the single finger went back that far ;-)

 

[Joe P]

Thanks, Cliff.

I used a quasi-B&W film, Kodak 400CN or something like that.

Joe, that's really nice, excellent framing

Thanks, Anex.

That's it from me until I find some Tri-X or Neopan in 120 format.
