And the 2023 Spring Track Season is On!
I found myself standing right next to the woman with the starting gun, so I figured I would get a few shots (pun intended). It is not nearly as loud when the gun is facing away from you!

ODC-Start
This is how we start our day throughout spring, summer and fall. Shizandra gets her exercise, Stu examines the garden and I take photos.
An early start as I'm off to Liverpool for the day. I used to start much earlier - but I found it counter productive in terms of tiredness.
The display is showing Apple's CarPlay - which is good as this model doesn't have Sat Nav.
The colourful, easy to read display is welcome on a dark Autumn morning.

August 7, 2021. I left today on my bike packing challenge. This is my bike fully loaded 10km in (1 percent complete!). I'm at a campground near Manotick, forgot a few things, but am otherwise off to a good start
WZFO Start
Fotopan NB04 200 at 25, expired in 1982
Something went wrong and the film curled up improperly, I got only 6 of 12 frames. I'm guessing that the film has detached from the backing paper.

This is the start of a new album: Dunwich Dynamo 2015.

The Dunwich Dynamo is a turn-up-and-go challenging free-entry overnight 120 mile bicycle ride on-tarmac from London Fields in Hackney, London to the lovely, lonely Suffolk beach at Dunwich.
The event is usually abbreviated to "Dun Run" or "DD".
It’s not a race. It’s unsupported. There’s no van following. It’s a long way. This year It starts at around 20:30 on Saturday 4 July. Yes, that's through the night people!

The last time I completed the Dynamo was in 2012, circumstance has prevented me completing it since.
Challenge 19: Object / High-Key
High-Key:
A very clear, almost white, overexposed but not burned image, on which only some reliefs or darker details are highlighted, an image which proposes a light, soft and pure vision of an object in diffuse light with a background not necessarily white but clear and without particular texture, the shadows remaining everywhere very discreet.
_____________________________________________
Une image très claire, presque blanche, surexposée mais non brûlée, sur laquelle seuls quelques reliefs ou détails plus foncés sont mis en évidence, une image qui propose une vision légère, douce et pure d’un objet en lumière diffuse avec un arrière-plan pas forcément blanc mais clair et sans texture particulière, les ombres restant partout très discrètes.

ICE 6408 gets started up by the engineer of today’s B02 the Belle to Rapid turn that will run down the DM&E Black Hills Sub.
We didn't expected it but when returning from North Ronaldsay the ferry didn't go between the islands but around Sanday so tried to take a few shots as the sea was wild at that time.

As with other Soviet-era rangefinders, the shutter speed selector rotates when the shutter is released, and should not be changed until after the shutter has been cocked. If you change the shutter speed without cocking the shutter first, the setting pin can be broken when you advance the film and cock the shutter.
The Start is a very well made and interesting system SLR camera, and entirely mechanical. It was aimed at the professional market. At its era there is no other system camera in the Soviet Union.
It was often referred to as the "Russian Exakta". At that time Start was the only competition to the Exakta available within the Soviet Union and the Soviet-dominated part of Europe. It was at least in principle, the only other system camera, providing not only interchangeable lenses, but also finders and viewing screens.
Helios-44 58 mm f/2 is similar to the Zeiss Biotar. But unfortunately this is the Start system's only manufactured lens. There is an adapter for M39 screw mount Zenith lenses, but this was not an attractive option, as such lenses did not have automatic aperture system.

It was damned muddy crossing the fields to get to a vantage point on Middle Hope. I had intended to head out to the south of the Mendips this morning but by the time I'd got my act together and de-iced the car it was getting a bit late so this was Plan B as it was 5 minutes away.
Despite the title this was one of the last shots taken on my morning outing.
