Wow. Beautiful, Raid.:angel:
 
This has been such a great on-going thread, raid, it was a great idea. I would like to get out and photograph sometime on Christmas day maybe but leaving the house of such great holiday is not a good idea sometimes. I will probably do some shooting sometime during the weekend though. Jim

Thanks. I like keeping this thread alive since it is a natural place where you can simply say what you are up to in a weekend, and it keeps RFF members connected in some way.

We have very bad traffic today if you are anywhere close to a mall. People drive like maniacs to get to shops to do some last minute shopping.
 
Planned on photographing the last minut shopping craziness today - left home with a Canon IVSB w/Canon 35mm 2.8 and a Yashinon 5cm 1.8 along with a camera I've been repairing that was ready for a test roll.

Spent a lot of time in traffic and then looking for parking. Ended up finishing my shopping and going to work instead. Disappointing as I lost last weekends shooting to a illness and won't have any more chances until some time after Christmas. I get jumpy after a few weeks without making time to take pictures.
 
We arrived to the bakery before the shops in the mall opened, so we easily found parking space.
I used the M6 with the rigid Simmicron 50/2 to take photos outside the seafood store (Joe Patti's). Then I used the Zeiss Jena 5cm 1.5 Sonnar for a few photos of Dana at home.
 
This is a special weekend .... Happy New Year!
I will try to take some photos, if I see anything worthwhile taking photos of.

Share with us your weekend experiences.
 
I met up with Paul (Fish) at Krispy Kreme this morning for some coffee and camera chat. It is always a pleasure to chat with Paul. He allowed me to hold his Fuji digital camera in my hands! It seems to be an impressive liitle camera with a sharp 35mm lens and excellent software to support it.
 
I've been pretty lazy over the holidays, only finished one roll of 24 in the Minox 35 between Christmas and New Year's Eve. Now I'm getting to the first roll of Tasma film, of which I got 12 from a fellow member in Canada in the Christmas thread. It's rated 80 ASA and is over 20 years out of date so I think I'll rate it around 50. Just as well, the fast speeds on the IIIf aren't working, anyway🙄
 
saturday night here.

spent the afternoon at RAMPATTACK.

Birthday party that my 10 yr old son was invited to.

Best party ever!

I went totally unprepared with lens choice. Doing a 1 month, 1 lens project (torture). January is 50mm!

Got a few decent shots but don't seem to be able to upload them to RFF at the moment.

No option from flickr or the gallery...

any hints???
 
It is winter here and it ealry darkens. Starting this Friday evening I have and will use HP5+ @1600 the whole weekend for indoor stuff without flash, in my Konica Hexar RF.
 
You have a big marlin there, Paul?

Messing with optics, too. Just chipped a 105/2.5 AI-S Nikkor and it's just terrific on digital. It now provides exposure info to all the later bodies I have.
Beating metal and full control back into the plastic age.

no bigeye, but i used to own one. had a handi-rifle single shot in .45-70 also, but i sold it to my youngest son when i figured my health wouldn't allow me to hunt any more. health is much improved, and i got a handi-rifle in .30-'06 from my kids for christmas.
no buck today, but i did get some nice light this evening for the x100:
