Thanks. But bit underexposed and flat. Not bad but could be better....no lightmeter makes it difficult :)
 
From Cauldron Snout on the River Tees with a Mamiya RZ67 and TMax 100

More shots from, and details of, this location on my blog at http://kevinthephotographer.wordpress.com/2011/11/17/location-cauldron-snout/
Brings back memories from what will now be 20 years ago when i spent time in this area backpacking and bivouacing....i recall one evening "setting up camp" and rapidly having to relocate elsewhere with a breeze that the swarms of darned midges couldn't fly in!:D

I haven't got a clue what I'm doing. I just play with all the knobs and dials and choose numbers I like and hope for the best! :thinking:

Join the club mate, fun isnt it.
 
That's a great shot Asha and what an impressively dangerous looking building.... :eek:

Time to dig out the 5x4 monorail :D
 
Panos can be better than a wide angle lens as using say a 50mm lens is roughly what the human eye sees panning a scene, anyway my first attempt using 6 images (the 9 one with a tele 200mm was a disaster back to the drawing board for that)......also quick results as I took the shots then went straight to Asda and after 2 hours had the CD.
Jessops diamond film exp 2006, 6 image pano.....and think I have another go with 9 images with say 80mm lens on a very sunny day to give more sparkle to the shot.all over.

 
That's quite impressive Brian.(y)

I can recall my father as a motorcyclist, regularly taking "pano" shots of hundreds, if not thousands of bikes lined up at different events that he used to attend.

No scanner / computer "stitching then...... he'd shoot x amount of frames with whatever P&S he had at the time ( a 126 instamatic at one point!), judging where he had composed to and overlapping the next frame slightly.

In his "scrapbook" of photos were pages of photos laid out side by side, overlapped where necessary, to make up the scene that he wanted to recall.

The end image was never as good as what you've managed but pano he wanted, and pano he got!
 
Thanks Asha...I joined shots like your dad only once and was a bit more difficult as I had to make sure my home dev colour prints were the same for my pano before cutting the prints and joining and then pasting onto cardboard :eek: But so easy now with Photoshop and with the cost of Vista everyone should have a go.....anyone interested? well post your shots? Three or more images is easy but you get a wide picture and no decent vertical like e.g. below, so for most shots to get a decent proportion you would need nine images, but in my shot a couple of posts back I got away with six.

Here's four images just swiveling the camera around :-


A funny story was when I posted a two image pano of a crowd of people standing outside a beach bar h'mm it looked great until someone pointed out that a girl only had one leg :D so photoshop can get it wrong and best to take shots of something simple e.g. a castle and surrounding.

Talking of castles...

I went to my usual "testing stuff out" place today to see if I'd finally fixed the tiny but very annoying light leak in the Super Ikonta, and to try out this Shanghai film.

A big (y) on both counts. Just wish I could learn to like this camera.

Really like that Simon.
 
Thanks Paul.

And thanks for putting me onto the Shanghai film. I think it'll be a winner.

I followed dev. time recommended on the massive dev. chart but I'll knock half a minute off next time.

Could be good idea for a challenge, not had one in ages.

Well guys don't vote for me in the challenges as if you do......my challenge would be for a two plus image pano :D

Here's a two image pano but the girl above the bin hasn't got a proper right leg:-


Using a 28mm lens you can nearly get nearly 180 degrees with two images like this:-

Start a thread, see if anyone else wants to join on.

Well panos are not popular as this thread would be swarming with shots...h'mm must be too "digital" and not traditional film photography, but if I ever win a challenge it would be a challenge for people to go out and produce some shots and would be something different.
 
Recently I was co-pilot in the beautiful Austin Healey 3000 on a 700 mile road trip from Wigan to Limoges in France with my mate Rob. Here he is with the car at a beautiful wooded area where there was an amazing restaurant.

Hasselblad 500cm | 80mm | Kodak Ektar 100.

 
Arrrhhh, that be Somerset car, that be. Verr nice too...
 
No you don't, its just a box that say's hassy on it, it could just as easily be Bronica or Mamiya or fisher price

What you want is Zeiss, if you aren't going to buy Zeiss, then you may aswel buy fisher price...:)


unless its Xpan, in which case.......ignore the above.........totally
 
Ohh I want a Hassy 500CM so bad.......!

I must admit, despite there being a few other MF goodies that I'd love to have, it would involve selling the Hasselblad to fund and I just can't seem to part with it. Just about to do the light seals on one of the backs before I take it to Copenhagen.
