I know this corner of the woods quite well. This photo is suitably sparse, love it.

Our local fields in their winter plumage...

I love the shallow dof and the wind movement, so evocative.

Venice. Classic snap from the water bus, given a gentle Portra treatment.

I like this, the contrast between the bridge and the moving boats, and the contrast of the sharp foreground with the misty background - lovely

Agreed- absolutely gorgeous.

Yes that's a standout picture even in this thread. Wonderful.

Many thanks for the likes and the comments. David, it was actually taken just off axis into the morning sun, so contre-jour-ish, which accentuates the sense of haze in the G Maggiore. So many people with tripods there in the mornings, though they had dispersed by the time I got there. I was early on the Accademia bridge, though there was already a fair assembly of tripods. My first time photographing in tripod hotspots, not my natural environment, took a little while to get used to!
The exposure was 71 secs at f22, 100 ISO with a Lee 10 stop filter.
I love the Hassy shots in Lincoln, G. The MF certainly holds the grain well, even at 800 ASA. I think I may get one this year.

Thank you
Was my first set back from the lab so was slightly nervous as to how well the camera was working. Got a light leak on one of the film backs but I have a seal kit to fix that no problem. It's a long time since I pushed any b/w film, even one stop, but HP5 - as I've been reading up on - really comes alive at 800.

Interesting focal field in that first one with the pine trunks?
I've just bought a box of Portra 400 in 35mm. I too love the 160, but I thought that given the time of year...

Wasn't quite sure how successful the trees shot would be - I'd focused on the small tree in the centre as it looks so different to the others, but think a wider aperture would've been better to make the DoF more obvious. It's only 5 mins from our place so I'll give it another go at some point.

You can stop all this right now, I thought I'd got over my urge to splurge on a MF camera to get that 'pop' and you go and post that........ I'm really trying not to buy more kit.......

Everyone who's into photography should own or have use of a 6x6, there's something about them, a totally different perspective opens up. Quite magical when you get it right!
