New old film challenge 56 "Shafts of light" entries thread.***POLL ADDED***

[RaglanSurf]

Struggling to come up with new ideas/subjects for these now so I'm going with "Shafts of light" so sunshine through clouds, moonbeams, torch beams, Jesus beams, dust motes in sunlight, you know the sort of thing, and as this is F&C I'm pretty sure we can also shoehorn rainbows into this as well.

As usual, the rules are:

• 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.
• ... and remember, not too NSFW as this thread isn't labelled!

Closing date of midnight on 25th January, poll will run for 3 days.

This is the thread for entries, the discussion thread will be here

The only one I have...


FILM - My first roll of medium format - post processed by fishyfish_arcade, on Flickr

Lubitel 166 Universal and Ilford HP5+.

 

[Carl Hall]

Easy decision for me this time, as I only have one that fits the theme

A photo of Lynmouth, taken back in March on a birthday weekend away. ETRS with Ektar.

Like Carl, I haven't got many shots that fit the theme but I think this one works quite well.

This is from August 1966, taken in Wells. The camera was an Exa IIB, and the lens would be the 50mm Domiplan. The film would probably have been PanF as even at that date I disliked fast films. I took a whole series of photographs around Wells at that time, some of which I still like as compositions and which cause me grief at the technical imperfections that prevent a decent print being made.

Taken at Fort Augustus Abbey in 2005 while it was being converted into a "holiday club". Film was Kodak 400CN and camera probably either an Olympus XA or a mju 2.

 

[Asha]

I'll crowbar this one in.
Shot with a circa 1933 Soho Pilot camera which had more pinholes in its bellows than a pin cushion!
The shots were stuffed although the shafts of light were kinda apt for this image.

He's right you know.

 

[RaglanSurf]

We have a tie, well done @joxby and @gazmorton2000.

Only one way to settle this.............













Fight!

 

[StephenM]

There is a way used on another forum that doesn't involve fisticuffs . But that is specified in the rules up front.

@joxby will win with a KO, only cos he'll cheat by hiding a roll of velvia in his fist for extra weight / punch when he throws his left hook

 

[StephenM]

Well, if it's a matter of "weakest to the wall" then the deciding factor should be the weight of the camera and lens used to capture the winning photo . Heaviest camera wins.
