Hello to all. Latest shots, tooked today and freshly developed.

So basically as in all parts of the world, i'm sure you have one in your town, the famous Christmas Fest ( Foire de Noel in french ). Many people and plenty occasion to capture some moments , and here they are. I'll comment some Very Happy

Beginning with a bear ....






Classic photo shooterz ( compact )



I've been caught Very Happy






Ok here, there were 3 girls imitating chickens travelling in the opposite direction to mine, i said : damn and began to follow them, just in case. In the meantime there was a guy following them and mocking a bit gently, then they stopped, after some 200 meters, to end their show. I got close and thought that i missed some shots, but until i saw this : the guy mocking them handshaking one of the girls at the end of the show. He was harmless. Just for the story ( sorry for the read ) but waiting is sometimes great.



Near an artifical skating park, i liked this lady coat Wink






A guy presenting an owl, actually two, one was white. Crowded with people shooting and impossible to get close. But at one moment he came in the middle of the place, and voila, i got my owl shoot as well.



The stand of the guy above with a more than natural bear, actually breathing. taxidermed of course. So ending with a bear as well.




All pictures were taken with a Contax RX, using manual mode, film was Ilford Pan 400 most of the shots are f4@1/60. Scans from negatives of course, tonality put at medium for some. Comments, advices welcome.

I agree, a very nice set this is. Great tonality.
The "I've been caught" and the Ladys coat are my favourites.
Thanks Hexi Wink

The ladycoat picture is the best for me, it has a timeless quality, the others are nice also, good set and good B&W.

The very first one, and you capture my mother-in-law! lol

Actually I don't have a mother-in-law as that would require

a) A wife

b) Her mother

but if I did.. with my luck... Smile Smile

Great series again. It seems odd looking at Xmas pics without colour.
