B&W Images here.....

[sperera]

might as well bring in the others from the other thread here where they belong in the B/W section:

 

[cristif]

Here some B&W images from me. The film used was Fuji Across, processed in HC110.

the rest of what Ive done so far.....well, a few more, don't want to bore you all too much....my plan is to take loads more over time do something with the images....they are Gibraltar's No. 1 Tourist Attraction.....would be cool to produce a book on them actually....thinking out loud here.....after I started the project I came across Nick Brandt's work in Africa all shot on film too and that has given me more energy to see it through. His shots are amazing given the fact its easy for me to get close to these macaques but hardly easy for him to get the animals he's shooting in Africa!!!! chapeau Brandt

Ah, everything is hand-held Hasselblad 2000 FC/M with 150mm or 250mm C lenses. The 80mm not used yet.

Actually, I'm thinking of taking my Sinar F2 + 150mm lens with Polaroid Type 55 up there too to compliment all this....would be cool....I can only imagine the look of the tourists when they see me with a cape over me and a camera that looks like its from the 1930's.....

That's a great series Stephen.

The book is a good idea too. You could even put a Blurb book together yourself for very little cost. www.blurb.com

Hey Seoirse, thanks for the positive comment.

Yes indeed, I wasn't aware of Blurb precisely but my lab (in Spain) also produces these books so its a great way to produce a one-off to show people you might want on-board to help out with the project.....I'd like an expert on board to write about the macaques I would say.....

A couple of B&Ws - digital images converted in CS4

After doing the Landscape Workshop in NZ I realised I had been ignoring B&W for a long time, these are a couple of results of my experimentation.

Thanks for the Welcome.

I did not mean to be as such, but I know Hasselblad community is unic and more advance in the spirit of Photography. I have more reasons to present myself in that way as an advance Amateur in this field. So I apolagise, and Big thank for your welcome in behalf of the Forum. Nice to get to know about you.

Regards
Cyril.

Patas Monkey - San Francisco Zoo

Saw this Patas monkey at the San Francisco Zoo. Everyone was shooting close-ups of it with their high power zooms and their digital cameras. All I had was a 553ELX and a 120mm lens attached. I shot ONE photo since it was the last frame in the roll of film...of course. When I went to put the 2x teleconverter and color film into the back the monkey was gone.

Along with my 500 C/M and H4D-31, some of my older non Hasselblad cameras have been put into service once again.
Here are a few pictures from these test rolls.

1. Yashica-A (1959) - f:22 at 1/300 - Ilford HP5+ / LC29 1+29

2. Rolleicord Va (1957) - f:5.6 at 1/125 - Ilford FP4+ / LC29 1+29

I'm sure we can forgive a Hassy user posting an occasional non-Hassy image.

Your posting of the earlier vintage cameras' output reminds me that I have been remiss and not been out shooting with the 1600F, nor have I played enough with the Kodak 135mm lens.

Oh dear, Jurgen should be onto me about that!! Sorry my friend!

Every time I pick up even a late 500 series camera or a vintage camera I am reminded about what photography is about: WHAT'S IN THE FRAME!!

Electronic AF and auto-everything cameras distracted us enough and now digital imaging is adding the that. So, I find I really need to discipline myself when using any digi-cam.

Nice shooting!
