More and more film fun with something other than a Leica M

Joe, You really make that Contax sing.
Leif, really nice tones.
Pencil_tube. Both very nice with the Rollei. The first is my favorite with the flare and smoke.

Thanks all! If anyone go to SaiGon, pm me, I'm very happy to meet you! We have a small film group too ^^"

@Jorgen Udvang: I use a Mamiya Pro TL + 80mm f1.9 (I use f1.9 for this poor light pic) + Fuji 160s outdate 2008

(I am not good at English, sorry if you do not understand or anything else)

I didn't take these photos, but I thought you might like to see them.

My mother-in-law, Ada (right, with pencil in the first photo) translating at the United Nations, Geneva, Switzerland, in 1946.

Translating at the U.N. by peter.a.klein (Boulanger-Croissant), on Flickr

Background: Just before she finished University in Kiev, Ada was "drafted" to serve as a translator/interpreter for Ukraine's delegation to UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency) at a conference on postwar reconstruction. She thought she was going for a couple of weeks. It turned out she was abroad for a year, and worked in Geneva, Paris and New York. Once back in the USSR, she was not permitted to travel abroad again until the family emigrated to the U.S. in 1979.

Scanned from prints, camera unknown. I've done a bit of curve adjustment, burning in of flare, and repair of the worst spots and scratches. Believe me, the irony of my retouching Soviet photographs is not lost on me. :eek:

A couple from the Contax645 in Napa - caught some beautiful fall colors.

Ektachrome 100.

Grape Leaf - the resolution with the 120mm macro is amazing.

Joe, I simply love those colours!
Peter; very interesting images!

November has been a wet, dark and grey experience around here! (But; the weather gods finally gave us snow the day before yesterday - at least two stops more light at one instant :D )

This is however the dreary, sometimes still beautiful November.

Pencil tube, I'm sure your friend is pleased with these photos. They are both really nice. What camera/lens/film did you use? Very 3-D.
