Beautiful. Love the horsies. I don't do color (can't afford it) but I've always loved and much preferred these less-contrasty images like Astia 100f, perfect. What else could you wish from a camera lens combo.

Thanks a lot!

Solaris is a nice film. Resolution is ok, grain…well, as long as you expose it well it is ok too and it has a unique color signature.

Overall it is mostly a scanner issue, you could push contrast and saturation in post…but why should you

The horsies where taken with the 90mm M-Hexanon. Wonderful lens.

Good images.

So you had a good time in Iceland?

[kanzlr]

thanks!

one of the best vacations ever
Iceland is not only a beautiful country, the Icelanders are immensely helpful and friendly people

oh…beer is expensive…other than that, it was perfect

 

[Bobfrance]

My thoughts exactly. I really must return sometime.

 

[KoNickon]

Definitely on my bucket list to go there. Great pictures.

Superb set. I'd be pushed to pick a favourite as they're all so good.

Well done, would love to see more work with your Hexar RF as I've yet to achieve anything nearly as good with mine! :bang:

Great pictures, well done! Just got myself a Hexar RF as well and am looking forward to trying it out.

Iceland is such a photogenic place - I went there a while back and loved the colours and textures of the lava, sulphur etc. - unlike anything I'd seen before.

Gorgeous tones in the horse image. That 90mm lens does well!!

 

[kanzlr]

thanks all, glad you like them

The 90mm is awesome, really. I had both, the latest Elmarit and the M-Hexanon a few years back and sold the Elmarit because it is, to my eye, an inferior lens.

Nice pictures, I really liked your Bónus image. Always fun to see our guest's pictures of the island.

 

[kanzlr]

Thanks
Visiting Iceland was one of the best things I did in my life so far.
