Showing my Nikon FE2 some attention

[David_Manning]

The siren song of digital makes it easy to forget that film is a wonderful medium...and I realize I'm preaching to the choir!!!

I went for a stroll in my corner of the world on a cool, breezy November afternoon and took the FE2 and Tri-X along for the walk. I scanned my selects today. I'm happy with the tonality, and I find that I still have a love affair with b&w film.

[David_Manning]

Thanks Helen 🙂 They were both made with the 50/1.4.

Texas til I die! That horizon line really took me back. DFW born & bred. Film still rules, especially Tri-X!

I think the last one is bovine. Do I have that right? 😀

It is not easy making landscapes interesting in B&W. Bravo.

Gotta love the rolling hills around Aledo, good work David!

Thanks guys. It's pouring rain here now...winter is in full swing. I even saw some lightning and heard thunder tonight.

David, they are are nice images, with the last two being my favs. Living in Austin, I
think there is a law that says we must like longhorns 😀 HOOK 'EM !!
The rain is way over due, but most welcome !

Living here in the Vancouver area of British Columbia it strikes me as bizarre to hear a remark like "the rain is way over due" !!! I'm jealous as hell.

We get our rain in giant bursts. If it was gentle and constant, we'd have more greenery. We'll get 3 months' worth in two days.

I'm dealing with a leaking roof now!

BTW...there was lightning and thunder yesterday in the early hours before daybreak...and we woke up to SNOW!

Gotta love Texas weather :O
