Brian, we've discussed this till we're green in the face..... i'm colourblind and so we dont talk about colour casts as its too complicated. Besides it was Scotland in Spring, it's always a bit blueish. :D
 
Colour looks fine to me @Andysnap Colour film picks up different coloured light better so there is far more variation depending on time of day and shade/sun.

Well Andy I know about your colour problem and was trying to help you. I don't know how long pictures are kept on F&C and maybe 50-100 people would be viewing it over time...but if Scotland is bluish in spring and you are happy then who am I to suggest you adjust it...just for me ;) ;)

The trouble is Brian that because I'm CB any adjustments i make are likely to make it worse so I tend to leave it as is. :)

Thanks, @RaglanSurf. We got really lucky with light and weather on that hike. We could see rain clouds continually roll through and dump rain everywhere around us except for the very fell we were on, so we stayed dry throughout our hike, but were treated to some great views as the sun would occasionally peak through the clouds on the hills around us.
 
Looks like Causey Pike under that lovely sunbeam, were you on Catbells?

A very nice set of images RJ.
 
Here is a result from my 'Gift' 1955 Minolta Autocord TLR -- the Gent is 89 years old and HE was the one who gave me all the gear so i went to his house and took a roll of 1993 dated ORWO NP22 with flash and daylight and processed it in 'Promicrol Liquid' 1+14 for 12 mins @ 20Oc and got some good negs. I did them some 10x8" prints as 'Thanks' for all the gear he gave me . Here i used a wid2017-11-23-0005.jpg e aperture of f4.5 on the Chiyoko Rokkor lens.

These are all lovely, but it's freaking me out seeing you post non-square photos ;)

How are you getting along with the Makina?
Click to expand...

Yeah, I must say that I still heavily prefer the square format and TLR/SLR viewing (e.g., seeing depth of field at full aperture), but it's good to move outside your comfort zone once in a while.

I actually really like the handling of the Plaubel, as it folds up small (in medium format terms), it can be put away very quickly or set up very quickly (lens cap can go on and off without removing filter or hood), it is quick to load and unload film, and can be operated with gloves without too much fuss. Basically, it makes for a great medium format camera for hiking and travel.

Edit: Well, the one thing I don't like about the handling of the Plaubel though is turning the darn thing for vertical orientation.

An Agfa Ultra 50 film fell out of the Fridge in the Garage and I didn't notice, then my Daughter RAN OVER IT in her CAR !! It was flattened to an 'Oval Shape' !! Well, I broke open the cassette in the dark and reloaded the film into an old re-useable HP5 cassette then went out with my Olympus OM-10 gifted by a Camera Club member and which I refurbished and took a short length which I cut and processed in C41 and all the negatives were GREAT !!

Not had any time for phootgraphy for around a year, and it's at least that long since I last posted! But forced myself out of bed on a cold Sunday morning to see if there would be any mist or haze. Managed to get this:

Of course as I grumbled about FilmDev the invoice turned up :)

Still getting the hang of the XA and I keep forgetting which way is infinity and that it will let me take photos at silly slow shutter speeds. All Ilford XP2.

Still got films to start and finish in the MF P & S beast and the baby voigtlander. It's taken 3 months to get through this roll in the XA.
 
Arley railway station Severn Valley Railway UK, Cosmic 35m by Lomo Kodak colour plus 200 taken using Symbols on camera for settings (sunny 16) F11+ a little bit 1/250th ie: the sunny symbol. One of the first shots I took after digging out my inherited cameras this one was my moms. For a such a basic 1970's camera with no metering other than eye I was seriously impressed early 2017.

I found some slides at the weekend that I'd taken in 1983, after looking through them I really do miss Kodachrome 64, they'd got the colours pretty much spot on by the early 1980s, I wish we could have it back. A shot taken from the garden of a double rainbow against a stormy sky. Canon A1, 50mm 1.8.

Nice capture. Came out well.
 
Thanks Bigmatey We stayed at the Endeavor Pub and had to walk through this alley/ street to get to the the town each day. I was impressed by the XP2 it gave some really nice shots. Your shot Kevin is great it's really sharp and great colours !

FILM - The gate by fishyfish_arcade, on Flickr

I don't normally do much work on my film shots in Lightroom (other than tweaks to contrast, highlights, blacks, whites etc.), but I gave this a bit more of a push than usual, including some vignetting. It's highlighted the grain somewhat, but I quite like the result.

yeah, you seem to get grain often in your Fomapan 100, and the Adox, but not always https://www.talkphotography.co.uk/threads/post-a-related-film-photo.661970/page-15#post-8005854, but generally they seem a bit grainy to me for iso 100.
I dunno, maybe there's a bit of 35mm v 6x6 going on and the fact its my life ambition to eliminate grain, thats effecting my judgement...:)

The shot of the horses is from the same roll as the shot of the gate - I took both shots within 10 mins of each other - so it's almost certainly Lightroom adjustments to blame for the extra grain in this case.

The last roll of Silvermax I shot produced quite thin negs (the meter battery in my OM-1 might need replacing, I think), so again, the pronounced grain there is most likely from me pulling out the detail at the scanning and post-processing stages.

I don't mind grain too much though. Not in B&W at least. :)
