Very nice photo. But there is no Rolleicord III B. The only Rolleicords with letter designations are the Ib, Va and Vb. Some collector books have confused things by adding letters to the names, so I suspect that the 'B' is actually the second type, type 2, of the Rolleicord III.
 
Nice pictures chip. I like the minimal style and the sharpness/detail in the pics. I thought about taking a similar style myself but I'm not much into architecture photography, people seem to want to see the nature here in Hawaii more.

Thanks so much Forest. I am pretty happy with the results I get from my Autocord. I don't know about architectural, I just happened to shoot walls that day! I typically photograph ordinary stuff in extraordinary light, which is easy too get here in New Mexico!

What do YOU want to take photos of? If the internet didn't exist, and you took photographs only to make art, remember a time and place, and share with family and friends nearby, what would you take photos of?

Probably my old neighborhood, or neighborhoods around Hawaii, to share with friends and family. In terms of "only to make art" I'd really have to think hard about that one, I'd probably have to come up with a theme with a series of photos. It seems like the best way to communicate meaning is with photos connected to each other by some kind of idea.

This is good advice from Phil I hadn't seen when he posted. I live in New Mexico. Maybe I'd be expected (though not sure by who?) to shoot classic New Mexico stuff. I typically don't.

Earlier in the year I was shooting at the Taos Pueblo, and classic New Mexico World Heritage site. While I did photograph some of the typical iconic stuff, because I was there, my favorite image from the morning was of somebody's old door.

Figure out what interests you Forest and go from there.
