      @Bridger no problem at all, yes it was on b/w film

      Very cool - I love b/w film. Was really into Ansel Adams when I was young.

      The bus to Ilford goes past my street, which makes me think of the film.

            I was out in Yosemite 3 years ago,and at the time I was fooling around with a Lensball. I took this shot and entitled it If Ansel Adams had a Lensball. He’s probably turning over in his grave at the thought.

              @Bridger I love Ansel! I tried recreating his Snake River image, but the trees have grown and you miss the curve of the river now.

                    @Marc2706 Pretty much whenever I go to take a picture of my wife,the first thing she does is tilt her head,which I guess is her way of showing some level of annoyance that I ,at that point,want to take her picture. Subsequently I'm always telling her don't tilt your head,which further annoys her. but in this picture it ,totally, makes the shot for me,along with all the other components. I guess the answer is Professional models know how to use/make the head tilt work to their advantage,as opposed to spouses being asked to pose for vacation pictures.

                      @Jett129 I totally agree with you. I did a lot of portrait shootings but I think I will never take a portrait of my wife which she likes 100%. I think in comparison to professionals they do not feel comfortable in front of the camera and (especially my wife) they have no patience at all. And thanks a lot for your positive feedback.

                            Recently got out and shot a roll of Kodak Ektar. Only my second roll, and I’m mad I’ve never shot it before. Got a couple shots for my on-going personal project called “6am in Greensboro” too.

                              @SFMCfranky this like those sunsets you only get to see in a grocery store parking lot on a random weekday. Gorgeous shot.

                                Thanks again. But it’s not quite so random. That photo is taken from my back field facing West. At this time of year, when it gets near sunset and there are clouds in the sky, I can see the colors start to light up the sky from my north facing kitchen window. So I’ll call my dogs and walk out to the western field and have a look-see. It’s always a nice view. But sometimes it’s spectacular. Especially if the fog is starting to creep over Sonoma Mountain.

                                I guess what I’m saying is, over the years, I’ve learned where and when to look for the light in my small corner of the world.

                                Thanks again.

                                  @SFMCfranky that’s awesome. I just usually only get lucky with a sky like that at the most random times.

                                    @alexxedge Really enjoying your 6AM/Greensboro project. Reminds me of a photography class I took where the teacher had us pick a place and shoot a roll of film there once a week for the entire semester. You have a little more wiggle room than I had,but great nonetheless. I remember when Ektar came out and it was somewhat of a game changer. I used to shoot the 400 at 200 for better color saturation. Not suggesting that you do that as your images look just fine. When new films came out Kodak would publish how their films would look slightly over or under exposed.
