@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.

@Bridger Big fan of Ansel Adams as well.

[Marc2706]

@Bridger oh yes! Ansel Adams landscape photos are legendary!

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.

Great shot @Go-For-Chill

Such a beautiful part of the world.

@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.
