Hey, Zig, Recognize this ?

It looks like that was a fun ride! Now your making me wish I was out riding instead of restoring my bike.

In early 1990s, Mt Pinatubo blew in Indonesia, lotsa particulates/gases pumped into the sky.
Made Pink/Purple sunsets for years.
Here Wizard & STJohn pose high up on the rim of Crater Lake just after Sunset.
I know, not GS bikes, but hey, I do have some GS blood in me,,..
Scanned from Kodachrome 64 Slide.

Wiz, how did you dig up this thread from 4 years ago?

And, Kodachrome 64, that is from some time ago too. I shot rolls and rolls of that, in late 70s and ealry 80s.
64 that was the faster, what was the regular? I dont remember, was it 24?

Have stacks of boxes of Bell&Howell slide cubes downstairs.

Ah, volcano gasses in air making more color in sunset. I know have better sunset here in late summer on higher humidity days.

(also note: is also a more recent posting/tread of "sunset photos")

I did a search on "Sunset", found your post,,.. am reluctant to pollute the system with unnecessary duplicate threads.
There was also a Kodachrome 25, was my standard selection.
But then I got a Canon EOS RT. Had a Pellicle Mirror (partially coated), so mirror never moved, 2/3 light went right thru it, fast camera, smooth and quiet.
But since I lost 1/3 light, I had to go to a "faster" film.
I had over 100 Kodak Carousel 140 trays loaded.
Been scanning them, during the winters, 'bout 1/2 way thru, and tossing the trays away, no one wants them,,..
Modern Digital Cameras are great, if a little too prolific.
Now there are more over-sized awful pictures than ever,,..
Always rember, think, before taking the pic.
Only YOU can prevent awful photos,,.. (not talking about yours)(insert here imaginary pic of Ansel Adams holding a tripod, pointing a finger at you).
