Lovely. Perfect exposure and processing. Rich blacks, white, and sublime midtones.

A few pictures from yesterday's MLK parade on MLK Boulevard in Anacostia, DC. Schlepping around the heavy Mamiya RZ67 was exhausting! I used a flash and underexposed both the flash and the ambient light by one stop each, giving nicely balanced shots, I think. This is how it works: with flash in AUTO, it tells me that f/8 would be the correct exposure. So I set the aperture to f/11, underexposing by one f-stop. Then I read from my exposure meter what the appropriate exposure time for f/11 would be for the available daylight, on that particular day 1/125 sec (EV14). So I set the exposure to 1/250s, underexposing the ambient light also by one f-stop. The sum of the underexposures flash and underexposed ambient light gives perfectly exposed negatives.

Results speak for themselves. The pictures look great.

I don't often shoot my GF670w wide open and close up, but I have to say, when I do, the results are quite pleasing.

Playing around with my $15.00 Yashica 124G which I found on Craigslist. Also, my last roll of Kodak Plus-X film in 120. I miss this film.
