Nice tones - did you get your feet wet?

Thanks, Martin, no, didn't get my feet wet. This is not Neopan but Legacy
Pro film, my first roll. I'm told it's rebadged Neopan, but HC-110 seems
to work well with this film. The film is cheap, something like $1.89 a roll.

Thanks again.

Well the auto exposure of the camera was very good, maybe because there was a lot of "kodak grey" in the shot so the camera wasn't fooled.

We ought to start an "under the bridges" thread. I have one or two I could contribute.

No need for wet feet Martin, look at the shadow - he was wearing stilts! Smile

It's clear the water is lively and cold.

Thanks for your comments, guys! Smile

Excalibur, it was a great area for B&W, all grays, browns, and blacks.

Fish, this is a bridge going over a little creek towards Meridianville. I
parked my car at a church and walked across this bridge, not a lot of
room for pedestrians. :-/

Peter, sounds like a great idea, be watching for your post.
Stilts, huh? LOL

Jussi, the water wasn't all that clear but I'm sure it was cold. Wink

This film seems to have less grain than the Arista Premium 400 (me-too
TriX).

Fish, exactly right, 431 to Fayetteville. Looking forward to your trollsview

comments.

i'll have color first. finished a roll of 400 superia on the bell and howell/canon slr, and left it at walgreens this afternoon. i am tempted to pick up the results tonight after work.
still a couple of shots to go on the bessa with 400 ilford xpt2 (?), the c-41 black and white film. i intend to take it to an actual photo shop to have it run ...

With your indulgence, I'll contribute two troll views also (I may have posted these before)... both Neopan 100, one with a SMC Tak 28, the other with a Diacord.

In the Lands of the North, where the black rocks stand guard against the cold sea, in the dark night that is very long, the men of the Northlands sit by their great log fires and they tell a tale...

They tell a tale of how, long ago, a troll living under the great bridge would reach up and grasp young maidens crossing over the water to the land of the wild highlands. The young men of the highlands tried valiantly to catch the troll but he always managed to escape. And so, inch by inch, year by year, they gradually dug away the earth under the bridge until it was so high that the troll could not reach the top. To this very day, if you wander under the bridge on a dark foggy night, you can sometimes hear the long, lonely wail of the troll as he reaches for his quarry in vain. Of course, it could be the foghorn on the dark, mysterious Bass Rock, but who knows for certain?

(apologies to Noggin the Nog) Smile

Peter, Jussi, and Fish, thanks for posting your pics, well done!

I just got through scanning the roll of Arista Premium 400, got 26 shots
from the roll in the Ricoh R1E. Here are two I did in pano mode, no sense
in Jussi having all the fun:






dev'd in HC-110B, 7.5 mins, 20C

pano mode masked top and bottom by camera, or actually wider?


PostPosted: Wed Mar 10, 2010 3:22 pm    Post subject: Reply with quote

it's the pseudo pano, masks top and bottom. But there's something magic about doing it that way rather than cropping after the fact.

Nice water again, Bill
