A crop from the last image on a roll of Rollei Superpan 200 through a Zeiss Ikon Nettar. through lack of research, the film's strong contrast caught me by surprise; in some images it works surprisingly well, and, having reduced the contrast a touch, the sharply detailed nature of the film works pleasingly.
The framing of this shot is a little off, though not so much as it was before the crop; however, I like the fragmented reflections in the window panes, combined with the vine, so severely pruned, to the left, and plant pot.
Woodstock, November 2020, Zeiss Ikon Nettar, Superpan 200, ID-11 stock.
If you like my photographs, why not consider buying a print at captures.life? I haven't yet finished building the site and putting in all of the terms and conditions and policies, but the bits that involve buying a print, having it delivered, and contacting me if anything isn't working or goes wrong are functioning just fine...
Took some picture on my bike today, but didn't like it. So I decided to do a self portrait, strobist style.....kinda.
Strobist info:
Sb28 in my hand, camera left CTO'd, gridded snoot.
Sb28 pointed behind me at the wall, with half blue gel.
Exposure0.006 sec (1/160)
Aperturef/8.0
thought I ought to upload something other than 365s, so here's my fave self portrait I did, with no meaning behind it whatsoever

My submission for 52frames Week 36 - Combine Three challenges. I combined Self-portrait, fill the frame, A line from a Song (Stare into my eyes - Eric K).
True love from the heart is eternal. I take pride in being 100% real and bleed passion and knowledge it self. People come in and out of our lives, we can just hope when it's time to part we can live forever within each other. Good spirits travel and stick to true love of our connections.

Self-anointing is a behaviour exhibited by all species of Hedgehog, but nobody really knows why they do it. I have never seen a wild Hedgehog self-anoint, but rearing this orphaned youngster has given me plenty of opportunities to witness it. They create a foamy saliva then undergo contortions to cover those hard-to-reach bits using their surprisingly long tongues. You can see the foamy saliva on that ridge near her tongue. My Hedgehog self-anoints when she tastes or smells something new, such as the first time she tasted cat-food, a worm, marjoram, and even after licking my son's feet. But sometimes she just does it for no apparent reason. The term self-anointing was coined by Maurice Burton, and was first used in a 1958 paper in New Scientist documenting the behaviour. But the behaviour was first recorded by German zoologist Ludwig Heck in 1912, when he called it selbstbespuchen, or ‘self-spitting’. Various theories have been put forward to exlain it (eg masking their smell, creating an extra irritant for would-be predators, deterring parasites) but for each idea there are examples that run counter to it. Anyway, there seem to be very few photographs on Flickr showing this behaviour, and it is something I wasn't previously aware of, so I thought I would share it. If you want to read more about the various theories attempting to explain the behaviour this is the best site: www.wildlifeonline.me.uk/animals/article/european-hedgeho...
My daughter wanted me to blow the seeds off a dandelion and this is the result taken by Jordan. kind of macro for Monday
The water was 18 degrees and I enjoy wild swimming. But, I'd reached my limit and was starting to feel cold so I quickly grabbed the fabric and made about 8 images in the last minute I was swimming in the river.
I didn't have time to think about posing, but recently this image resonates.
(Many thanks to the group of ladies I went with and Chiara for pressing the remote control button because I didn't trust myself not to drop it in the river.)
Messing around with ideas for a self portrait contest in the North Alabama Photographers Guild (NAPG) group here on Flickr. This is the type of portrait photography I like to do, so it seemed fitting to portray myself as the model and the photographer.
I was going to change shirts and pants for each shot, but it was kinda cool out and getting late, so I didn't bother. :-)
Wow! #14 (2/23/09) on Explore!
