Analog film photography and cameras

Some more from the Rollei on Ektar 100, this time Dunottar Castle south of Aberdeen. Stunning place, even a on a grey windy afternoon.

Really strong colours considering the greyness of the weather. Nice!

That's ektar I guess, also quite long exposures, 1/4 of a second ish.

@mi7rennie Sorry man, Not having much luck uploading.

Pictures aren't working for me.

I wrote a thing about shooting with my Rolleicord. Comments and criticism very welcome.

They need to be less than 3mb each. Otherwise host on flickr and link here via BB code.

:-O

All nice. The 3rd of these (Dunottar shots) is grand.

these are lovely.
sorry for the delay.
as others have said, you can fake it with a it of feather on the black layer.
however, if you wanted to do it 'properly', and the film isn't cut into frames, you could scan it again, but with the frames moved along a half-frame, then you'd have all of the actual edges, and you can layer one set over the other (if it was me, I'd use one set for all the photos and just add the inbetween bits off the other scan, with a tiny bit of edge into the photo, maybe a feathered edge, not try and make any joins in the middle of photos). bit of a faff, but if you wanted to print a particular panorama big, it might be worth it.

nothing special here but I love this lens so much (pentax 67 55mm f/4)

The first one is insane!

Also loving the first one

That's what I'll do next time I think. Nice wee camera but not ideal for panoramic shots with the auto exposure. Looking at getting a Pen FT at some point.

Wow...Ektar looks lovely in this light...normally only seen it used in the sun where the saturation is way too much but here it's perfect

Lush!

@platypus Ektar is wonderful but you must get into the shade if it's mid-day sunlight and/or expose for shadows. It's not hard to use, it's just not super-easy to use. And unlike Portra 400 (which is idiot proof) it does need good exposure. It can get tricky indoors ... or in England.

First one is a great shot, colours are wicked!
What film / processing if I may ask?

It's (expired) Provia 400x pushed 1 stop, I think I metered at 640.
I tried to get the scan as close to the slide as I could, I think it's fairly accurate.

It's from the same roll as this shot I posted before.

..cool, thanks for the info!
