New Old Film Challenge #50 - "Pairs" - Entries *** POLL ADDED***

[Carl Hall]

We've got to the big number fifty now, what a moment

The theme this time is "PAIRS". Duo, twins, set, couple, twosome. Anything that there is two of in the image.

No, not "pears", pairs! Unless it's a pair of pears of course

Usual shoehorning rules apply, meaning that it is not only accepted, but encouraged

Entries thread will be open for one week from now, closing around 8.30am on Thursday the 27th October. Voting will then carry on until around 11pm on Monday 31st, or a little later if I'm late back from skittles!

Normal rules apply-

• Must be a photograph taken by you
• Must be on film
• Must have been taken prior to the start date
• Please tell us about the camera and film etc, with a description of the image.

Discussion thread is here

Old Boots by The Big Yin, on Flickr

Neopan 400cn, Boots Developed and Home Scanned - from my first reel "back to film" back in 2009. Canon EOS 5 (that grenaded two rolls later) and the 50mm f/1.8

Boots are still going strong though... pretty much the only thing that is, tbh - 400cn discontinued, EOS-5 released the magic smoke, nifty fifty got dropped and fell to bits...

I'm pretty sure this was the first or second roll of Portra I ever used, it certainly restored my faith in colour negative film.

On Christmas morning in 1974, this pair were having a hard time climbing the Franz Josef Glacier in South Island, New Zealand...



(Earlier that day we had awakened to the news that Darwin had been more or less demolished by Cyclone Tracy; it was bizarre to face a beautiful calm day and climb up the glacier!)

Kodachrome in the Pentax Electro Spotmatic, 55mm Takumar lens IIRC.
