Weekend Photography Plans: What are you up to?

The weather is fine again in Pensacola. We had fog early in the morning, but I was too sleepy to go out for yet more fog photos with fishing boats. I uploaded scans from the CD's to an external drive, so that further work on the scans is faster when working with the drive.
 
Shot a few frames (Minox 35) over breakfast at a local diner. I was also thinking to do some developing today but my wife has a bad headache and can't tolerate strong smells. I think I'll just break out the screwdrivers again.
 
Ending the photography weekend on a high note. I managed to remove the rotted bellows from my GS645, with remote help from fellow RFF member jnoir in Spain who will be fabricating a new one for me. Read all about it over in 120 RF folders.

Hope everybody is having a fun afternoon/evening watching football.
 
Beeing several smaller lakes freezed completely and secured by the authorities, I will try to get that sort of impressions on film this weekend.
 
I will take things as they happen this weekend. Usually there is nothing special happening here, so I take some photos of the family.
 
false spring is over here. high today of 38F, wind at 25mph, so a nasty wind chill. we'll be inside, at the sectional wrestling tournament. a cam will be with me, but unless the overcast flees and a clear sky offers some interesting light, i will watch wrestling ...
 
We may have low 30's tonight, Paul. Bundle up and stay home .... brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
The one good thing is getting beautiful sunrises and sunsets with deep blue water on such cold days.
 
Very cold but sunny here in Freiburg, Germany. Will take my Leica IIIf and my new Skopar 25/4 and shoot some more slide film. Still not decided if I stay in town or take the train up to the black forest for some snowy landscape stuff ...

I have the same lens on my Leica III, great combo!
 
Poor light here today. We had a tiny bit of snow before but it's already disappearing so everything is drab. A very un-photogenic winter we've had.
 
I was in Jacksonville (Florida) this weekend. My photography was limited to using an Olympus half-frame camera plus my cell phone camera. The posted image was taken with a HTC EVO4 cell phone in B&W mode with ISO100 and max contrast setting.

I made good progress on the M3 repair today. I was able to get the shell off (it has a dent I need to fix) and remove the RF unit (separated prism). How to get the prism out still has me puzzled...

Also waiting for the correct back door to arrive from forum member buzzardkid.
 
It is weekend again, and we have colder weather than usual. A few days ago it was 77 F and now it is 48 F.

I will try out my "new" CZJ 5cm 2.8 T Tessar to see how good it is. I found a suitable lens hood for it last night, so I am ready.

What are you up to?
 
I may just sit back and watch the mud wrestling match that's going on over in the Leica M subforum, about DAG.

Meanwhile, I'm doing my own M3 repair. Outcome as yet unknown but it's fun :D
