Weekend Photography Plans: What are you up to?

Rainy weekend here! My wife will shoot her DSLR for her on going "fall" project and I'll assist her, keeping her under the umbrella 🙂
Meantime I'll shoot my Rolleiflex (Portra 800) and maybe the FM2t (again Portra 800) with the new lens I just bought, the Daguerreotype Achromat 2,9/64 from Lomography arrived a few weeks ago, just curious to see how it works...

PS: sometimes bad weather helps the photographer...
 
We had amazing weather, perfect. I attempted to photograph my friend's 'racing drones' (radio controlled multi-rotor thingies). I discovered how woeful such a task is with a manual-focus lens!
 
We also have very nice weather today. I started the day with cleaning (again) the sensor for my M9. It looks OK now.

I also voted early for the next US President.
 
How has your weekend been so far?
In the USA, we have an extended weekend since Friday was Veterans Day.
I used the Pentax Takumar 50/1.4 on the M8 for some portraits.

Share with us here your weekend plans and activities.
 
Anxiously awaiting the arrival of my new X-Pro2 and 16-55 lens. In the meantime I'm taking the X100 for a day trip to a couple of small towns near me, to see what might be waiting. It's sunny and cool, a perfect combination for a bit of a spin down the road.
 
We have been yesterday to a "apple market", fruit not computers! I shot a roll with my Zeiss Ikonta...photo courtesy from my wife...

I so much wanted to go out shooting this weekend but our Pomeranian Mary Jane passed away Saturday night. She was a part of our family for 10 years. So I just haven't felt like going out much. Maybe I'll do so tomorrow. I'm off work til Wednesday.🙁
 
It is "Black Friday" in the USA, where people in the millions go shopping for super bargains. I don't do such activities, so I was with the family enjoying a relaxing family trip to Destin and Panama City, Florida.

I used the M9 with CV 50/3.5 and also original (Prominent) Nokton 50/1.5.
What are your plans for the weekend?
 
Spent a few spare hours yesterday in central Queensland coal country. Today it's raining and I've got film to develop, scan and edit. And trying to find a nice M4-2 to mount my 21/3.4 SA to so I don't have to swap lenses.
 
Today we'll have the vernissage of our association annual exposition, both my wife and me are showing our works. I'll attend the party and try to make a short video of it, just for the association records.
Variable weather here, maybe tomorrow I'll shoot something with the M7 which is along time I do not use. Not sure what or where...

PS: planning also to do some printing (inkjet) in the night...
 
I started my weekend by uploading some images from my Prominent Nokton 50/1.5. I will use this lens again this weekend.

What are you planning to do this weekend?
 
Since we will have constant and fairly heavy rainfall through Monday evening, I'll spend the weekend with the Internet, my Kindle or streaming something on TV. I'm caught up on processing my files and printing recent photos.
 
I was gifted a Nicca 3-S rangefinder by a kind RFFer. Have a roll of Arista B&W 100 in it. Going to test the shutter for any capping. If bad I will send to Yoxun Ye. It's a beautiful camera.
 
I'll go to a small village on the hills not too far, I'll bring my FM2T with the new Daguerrotype Achromat 2.9/64 lens from Lomography. I'll test it with a BW film...
