TLRTuesday - Please Join In

[Nick De Marco]

I started a new project, due to my current obsession with TLR cameras. Post one of your favourite photographs taken with a TLR every Tuesday. Just one, and only on a Tuesday. Across all social media you are on (instagram, Facebook, twitter, flickr etc.). Hashtag it #tlrtuesday, share it and encourage others to do the same.

This is my fourth week, and #tlrtuesday no.4 is a double exposure I took (by accident) in Napoli in 2012... Here it is

And I started up a group on flickr for people to post theirs too: https://www.flickr.com/groups/3030814@N25/pool/

And now I have started this thread here I shall be back every Tuesday to add another one, and I really hope as many people as possible will join in. Only post your best. And please, just post on a Tuesday (every week if you can!)

Happy #tlrtuesday

You should make more accidents like that :]

Sounds like it's gonna be TLR Tuesdays then?

Hi, Nick!

Oddly enough, I just pulled out my only TLR, the CiroFlex... I had a moment when I realized I desperately want a Rolleiflex but can never afford one. So, I got the bag with camera, film, etc and put in my X1 to use as a meter.

I will post on Tuesday on this forum.

Just finishing a roll this week but I have a few to share from previous outings.

Thank you for this interesting project. I need something inspiring for me to work on to help with my exhaustion and depression. Just in time for an early Spring in these parts!😀

The Ciro with a clean lens is a fine image maker. The Rolleis may be a bit smoother in use but the Ciro is no slouch. I CLA'd one for a friend and was very pleasantly surprised by the Wollensak.

Hi, Fixcinater! Sorry I don't remember your first name...

Yes, agreed, the CiroFlex is quite capable and I love it! If only I could remember the ISO of the film and advancing the film. Lol...

My eyes are having a difficult time when focusing but I don't know a solution for that...I plan on shooting a lot of rolls in the next couple of months. This is going to be fun!

 

[Fixcinater]

Have you tried cleaning the inside of the viewing lens and the mirror (very gently, or replace it if corroded) and the ground glass? You could add a fresnel in there like the Yashicas and Rolleis have.

Great idea! A good prompt to get back out there with my 2.8c - thanks

#tlrtuesday no.7 Wild Grass

#tlrtuesday no.7 - Wild Grass by Nick De Marco, on Flickr

Happy Tuesday RFF friends. Glad to see the messages above. Let's have some #tlrtuesday photos now...

I chose this photo of the wild grasses by a pond next to the canal near Mile End on a sunny winters day for my 7th #tlrtuesday not only because I love the colours and shapes but because it also shows what the Rollei T and medium format film can do. Razor sharp reproduction of the in focus grasses gradually becoming an appealing blur or booked as you move further from the focal point, giving the photograph a three dimensional but also quite abstract look.

Here is my first Tuesday post with a CiroFlex TLR. It is a multiple exposure of the County Courthouse here in our current hometown.

Still hoping to get out this week with the CiroFlex. I did manage to finish a roll with the grandkids on Saturday but that has not been developed yet...

So, my humble submission:

CiroFlex E Tri-X:

Robert,
Nice! What film did you use?

and why not...

I happen to like this one for many reasons. Great mood!

How did you meter this exposure?

Thanks Dave
