Some weeks ago I got a Revue 400SE and a Canonet, but I've only recently developed and scanned some snapshots. These are from the Revue, it seems everything works perfectly, after I fixed a weak spring that failed to fully open the aperture Smile

film is Fuji Superia 400

I ilke these - particularly #s 1 & 8. I think it's the contrast between the yellow of the building interior and the blue-grey of the exterior.

Can you tell us which city this is ?

OK, maybe I am going to say a weird thing, but this city reminds me of an episode in the Star Trek, classic series, when Kirk and Spock land on a planet in search of Kirk's brother and they are attacked by huge flying amoebas (or similar)

I can tell you, John.
I'ts Madrid downtown. I lived there for 7 years, and Naplam's pictures, besides of being great, have come to my mind a lot of memories....

The big building is the Picaso tower, an important business center.

Regards,

Jes.

Thanks Jes. My wife and I have planned to visit for a few years. Now that the children are both at university - maybe this year.

perfectly fine shots (on the camera side, also no distortion, nice lens) and wonderful photos of Madrid on the other side! Madrid looks a nice city, i've been only once in Spain (Barcelona, expensive due to its touristic soul i guess) but i think Madrid deserves a visit.

My fav is the 4th (nice sculpture in there)
