I went to a retirement party this evening - here are a couple of shots with the M9 and the 35 'lux that I liked . . . . they aren't perhaps so suitable for the website

Jono: Marvellous.:thumbup:

Something from the M8 and 75/2 Cron Asph, captured in the village of Chivirico, Cuba.

Cheers,
Jeff
Jeff: This is magnificent. Truly beautiful. :salute:

Marketing techniques continue to evolve: Not only they offer you suits, they carry complete outfit solutions as well. No need to ponder over the diabolical problem of choosing the right tie or shirt, it is all provided for for their esteemed customers...:clap:
M8 with MATE.

Osnam: What a lovely find! Wonderful to see this.:salute:

Steve: Take me to wonderland friend. Where the magic is strong and masters

conjure up a brew for us to taste. Excellent in every sense of the word.:salute:

A fourth of July party given by a cellist friend featured an informal recital by her newest pupil. We were still in our "June gloom," so there wasn't much light.



And a pianist friend asked me if I'd take her portrait for an upcoming program. A combination of window and incandescent lighting did the job.



Both with M8, ISO 640, 50 Summicron, f/2.8-ish

Peter: I can think of one thing only. Elegance. In the subjects and the capture. Beautiful.:thumbs:

Three or four years ago, when I was on the road, Mimi went for a "little" weekend ride with some friends (just 104 miles through the mountains... rain, snow and wind for their trouble). Of course, she had a blast.

They took a little side trip into a canyon which is home to a "ghost town", a mining town which produced more than $13,000,000 of silver from 1870 to 1900. She told me about it, and had mentioned several times since that she thought I would find it interesting.

Monday was a holiday here, and when plans with friends fell through, she suggested we visit the place, and then do a ride on roads in an area I had never experienced.

Turns out that it's not really a "ghost town". The large mines closed long ago, but small scale mining operations continue, and the town was never completely abandoned, and there are still a dozen or so full-time residents, together with some summer homes. There remains a lot of evidence of its former glory, and I was able to capture a little. I hope to get back there to photograph more in the near future.

Abandoned ore dump:


Ore car and rusting boiler:




Steam powered ore car winch:








All with the M8, 35 Cron ASPH combo.
Lloyd: Such are the towns of which the country is made of. The town might have down scaled but the spirit lives on. And there are the few like you who capture this piece of history for all to remember.

Lovely use of the 35 cron. Lovely documentation. Lovely captures.:salute:
