an old fire hydrant which used to be red, now turning green ...

Vietnam colors I made them a little brighter but, I just like how it looked.

Next to the buildings of the university of luxembourg (campus kirchberg) I spotted this red hydrant.

It is tall enough to be used even when snow is on the ground.

Rusty fire hydrant seen on my way to work this morning - amazing (to me, at least) the beauty that is present in the mundane.

just some good light and a fire hydrant on my street.

The hydrant is dead, long live the hydrant...

Something old, something new, something blue...

Hidrant je mrtav, živio hidrant...

Nešto staro, nešto novo, nešto plavo...

The handles get all pretty and saturated when they are wet. But is it just me, or do they look sort of sad and lonely?

Day 180 of the year with 180 mm focal length. Meyer-Optik Görlitz Primotar 1Q 1:3.5/180 at f/3.5

I'm sort of overwhelmed by the saturation of Velvia. And this is only 100 - I can't imagine what the 50 is like. Of course I'd heard about it, but in my mind it was something more like Ektar, with a different color balance. Instead it's more like lomography or a digital camera set to Vibrant, or a photo saturated in Photoshop. This shot has no post processing whatsoever, beyond what the lab did to scan it of course. I don't dislike it, but I'm not sure whether I like it.

Next roll - I'm going to run through my LTM Leica with the prewar lens - uncoated - which may offset the intensity a bit - for better or worse, we'll see!

McCormick Mansion

Cantigny Park

Wheaton, Illinois 41.856372, -88.153856

April 10, 2023

This was my first visit to Cantigny since last fall. And the exterior remodeling on the mansion is nearly complete. One of the new additions is fire hydrants. In addition to these two, I counted three more within 50 yards of where I was standing. And that was just a casual search. I'll pay more attention next time. Evidently, the fire insurers had a word with the management. ;-)

But it was (and will be) more opportunities for my latest project. www.flickr.com/photos/jimfrazier/albums/72177720307428484

And this project is the result of the fun I have teasing all of you folks in other countries who don't know the joy of above-ground fire hydrants.
