Took recently in Napa Valley. M6 with 24 ASPH and 135 APO lenses and Velvia 50 film.
These are gorgeous. I have never tried Velvia, and I was not really planning on it as most of the results I see are typically a little to garish for my taste. But these photos are making me re-think it.

A few from the M4-P + Jupiter-8 50/2 + Ektar:


Abandoned Hat, May, 2010
I always tend to look before I read. This one really got my attention - for a split second it looked like roadkill. :eek:

What a relief to read that is was a hat.

You're not the first person to mention that to me! My BF said:

I'm really enjoying everyone's posts. So inspiring to me. I'm very happy to be shooting film again (and developing it!), in addition to digital.

A few with my new (to me) 50mm Sonnar, before I slammed it and camera (in bag) against a piece of furniture, seemingly resulting in a loose "front-end" on the lens. Though it seems to be shooting OK with my M8, I'm afraid I'll need to get it serviced, just to be sure.

Anyway, all on FP4, shot at 200ISO in Diafine 3+3, all wide-open in twilight. Scanned with PlustTek 7300. Just a touch of Silver Efex magic added.

Those are very pretty, Mike! The Sonnar is a nice lens and you put it to good use.

Here's a few pix from the M4-P, paired with BW400CN and the CV 28/1.9 Ultron:

Lawn Chair, June, 2010


Alert Scooter, June, 2010


Mom With Pills For Domino, June, 2010


Domino In The Grass, June, 2010


And from the same roll, one with the 50/2 Jupiter-8:

Frogs, June, 2010

Best $30 I ever spent of photo gear, I reckon.

Beautiful and dreamlike in quality. Sorry to hear about the lens. Hope it just takes a bandaid. :thumbup:

Yesterday I took delivery of a 52 year old M2 :D:D

Here are a few from the test roll of XP2 with low rez jpg scans by the local one hour lab, all with the 50mm Sonnar.

Nice shots! I shoot film with a 52-year old M2, too. And with a Sonnar, too (among others).
