J, that's exactly what got me to stop the car w/ cold groceries inside. The curse of multiple roll film cameras is another shot where I tried holding a red filter in front of an Ikonta remains undeveloped. I see this field several times/week & I never get tired of looking at it. On the East Side of it (to the left in the image) there are elk several times/yr & naturally I have no gear when they're there. Thank you for posting your thoughts. I very much appreciate it.
I've been trying to get into 35mm cameras (I have at least three: Canon Elan II, Minolta XG-M and a Sears KSX 1000), but I just can't get past the small negatives. They are exceedingly portable, though!
And fast. And economical - don't mind experimenting. I had 8 sec to recognize, focus, set exposure for the shot of the lady paddling down the river. DOF is deeper, more forgiving also. Immediately after taking the above shot, a group of cyclists rode past. I sort of focused & trusted the existing exposure & crossed my fingers. 'Turned out well. When I see work from Tony Lockerbie or Scott Schroeder (LFF) in 35, I know it can be done. For things that don't move, I usually use other tools. 'Should have 1/2 roll on the blad of the furnace tower, and at least one or two on the Ikonta of the field above. 'Can't wait to see them.
And your posts from 35 are nothing to sneeze at - very nice. That Debonair 0003 is killer. We look at twisted trees in similar ways.
