Weekend Photography Plans: What are you up to?

Off to a 1940s weekend. Plenty of people dressed in vintage gear, music, wartime re-enactment and a trip on a steam train. Should get something worthwhile.

Rainy weather since a week keeps me more at home than outside. But this is all right because I have to process and finalize the images from a big family event three weeks ago (85 final images still to crop, PP, publish, write captions, select a bunch for print, etc...). This activity at the end of the photographing process... I don't like it, until the final result is there. But it has to be done.
 
Last weekend was to my beloved Asheville with the M7/35 and G2/45 and lots of film. While there, I bought an M3SS and a lovely Nikon F2 Photomic and saw what looked like an M9P from a distance.

This weekend will be a return to digital for a bit -Df battery just finished charging!
 
Met RFF member Al Patterson & we photographed the Norfolk & Western 611 steam train as it left restoration in Spencer NC to Roanoke Va.
 
HOT, HOT, HOT, and getting HOTter! Quiet weekend, mostly indoors. Packing and planning for another excursion to Asheville and beyond. Only about 2.5 hours away, but the temp drops about 12F! This will be a film trip and will include a camera that has been used only once in the last 25 years. My father's Nikkormat EL. I promised my brother that his son needs to shoot a roll through his grandfather's camera. I'll be taking my M2BP and M7 for myself. Oh, and the RX for digital.
 
Headed up into the Rocky Mountains with a Leica IIIg using Efke KB25 (it is summer solstice, so there ought to be plenty of light for ISO 25), and an Olympus XA with some really outdated color print film.

made a quick trip to gulf shores to spend some with eldest son and his family; got some good family "action" photos with the new e-m5 and kit zoom ...
 
Went to the Sounders game and then the Solstice Parade on Saturday. I managed to shoot three rolls which is a lot for me.

Today I'll try to catch up on my film development backlog. I'm trying to get through it all before a trip to New York next weekend.
 
It is that time of the week again.
I may use the Panasonic LC1 for some basic photography after the Europe trip that was filled with daily photography. I am "tired" from photography. I want to just relax.

What are your plans for the weekend?
 
Photographing a wedding tomorrow (family friend). Will be using a Leica M-240 I’m borrowing, my Leica MP, a SX-70 Polaroid using IP film, and a Canon G2 digital converted to IR-only. It will be a full day, that’s for sure.

This weekend, and it is one day gone, I have been using some of the 750 sheets of Polaroid film I have. My Polaroid Pro Pack II is getting used after a long rest.
 
Shot a roll with some friends in Charlottesville VA, a quaint college town. About to develop, let's see if there are any keepers.
 
I’ll be photographing my favorite model tomorrow. Will be using a Leica M-240 (not mine, a friends) and probably a Polaroid SX-70 using the new Generation 2.0 Impossible Project film (beta).
