I like that Kerrfunk. Looked at as an abstract assembly of lines, pattern and color it works well upside down too.

Agreed on the lovely ice shot. Forming ice can have so many beautiful patterns.
A few from this week.
Ye men of decency DO NOT search "69 Cougar" for nice images of this car. Instead look up 69 Mercury Cougar.

Thanks. I've been somewhat neglectful of my photography these last few weeks. These shots were quick stops on my way home from work. Like a good ride on the GS, I feel happy after camera work.
Seems that I'm on another black and white kick...

I've got drawers full of film cameras and fridge full of film... let's go.
Nice. I like the weathered utility pole with all the tags and nails from over the years and the vine growing past all of it.
Last few weeks have been B/W, eh?
.
Interesting ice formation and reflection. You found a good view of it.
Okay, its been two weeks since I posted a pier picture.

New Years Eve day morning before sunrise.
Took short tele zoom (14-42mm) and tripod out there. This with the zoom cranked to its full out (94 equivilant, so a mild tele).
THis shot at 0801AM, so about 15 minutes before sunrise, so still dark with a little bit of dawn light.
Opps, I should level it some.
I have found that even with short tele, the level indicator on the screen can show level (yellow tilt line turns green) but can still be off a degree. And a degree Is noticable with something like a tower that know should be vertical, or something like, say, a lake horizon all across the frame of picture.

I have one film camera but it's a cool one, my mom's old Rolleiflex 3.5E Xenotar, a '56 model. My older brother has all the negatives, boxes and boxes from ~1957 to the 70's.
Photography was a big thing for my parents. I never had the bug or patience to learn. So it sits.
My grandfather was studying at Max Planck Institute of Psychiatry in the late 20's and early 30's in Munich (interesting times!), and my father digitized his movies from all over Europe, Bermuda, Florida and New England. Boat parties on the Charles river with flapper girls, hiding drinks looking out for cops is a highlight. A lot of it is in color starting in about 1935. Weird to see my dad at 1 year old in color as he's now 86.
Well, the title does say 'random' so I thought I'd share some randomness. If anyone wants a direct link to old color video footage, I'll send - PM me. It's even narrated!
Mom took this one, I'm sure with the Rollei, in about May 1969. It's got some schmutz on it from something but it's a great memory. I'm the 3rd stooge in the far back, aged 8.

Nice. Hard to get perspective from this angle. Being able to see the branch's under the snow is different.
Thanks....It was turned 90?
Nicer with the sun out today...
