Along the track ...

Charleston SC


This is not a good image, but I've put in on my gallery to remind me
that shooting a Rollieflex TLR handheld at 1/15 and ƒ5.6 will get an image to some
degree, albeit not a printable one beyond about 6"x6". The cloud-dodging sun
caught the bend as I was walking this track, and I had one shot left, and no tripod.
And to get any shadow detail using iso50 Pan-F, I needed it "wide and slow". Too bad
about depth of focus, and sharpness.

Bottom line: I was there, I enjoyed the moment. I have a memory of it. :-)

Another Rollei Tessar image is HERE.

Rolleiflex K8 T3, Zeiss Tessar 1:3.5 ƒ=75mm, Ilford Pan F Plus
Ilford Pan-F at iso50, Rodinal 1:100, for 60+ mins.

Definitely print-worthy.

Colin, I like the image. It evokes a somewhat melancholy feel. V

I know it is not to your exacting standard of tonal quality, etc but it has a charm It has a look of pictures taken before the 20th century.
