Show me your BEST Picture

[DaveInDenver]

I've got a Nikon FM2N with several lenses, motor drive, etc. that I would love to part with. About the slickest manual camera system around at the time. Ping me if any interest.

PM coming, seriously. My regular is FM3a/MD12 with a smattering of various primes.

 

[RDub]

Well, you now have the opportunity for a second MD12!

That green really got pulled out didn’t it? Great shot.

Film is getting really expensive, both for the film stock itself and processing. I end up using Kodak Gold or Color Plus 75% of the time because it’s ~$8-10 per roll. It’s no Ektachrome or Superia, but it’s not bad at all.

I shoot chromes mainly because we still like to get them back and look at them projected. I found a sweet long focal length lens for my Carousel and would do them on a sheet in the backyard in the summer.

My projector went kaput and got out of the habit. Was able to source the parts to get it back functioning. In the winter of 2019-2020, perfect timing. So haven't done any shows in the past few years unfortunately. :-(

Normally I’m on my late 70s Pentax K1000. Same era and same basic functionality as your camera. Dead simple to use and very robust. Got a few more lenses on my list but the two I have get the job done.

Many years ago I was a Pentax guy, too. This would have been mid 80s, very early 90s. I had a couple of ME Supers with winders and a handful of lenses. I thought I wanted to be a photo journalism major so worked on the student newspaper and was a stringer for the local daily.

This was a selfie 1990 style with a Ricoh XR-M I had at the time.

Tough to find my favorite
Medium format film, good that she can hold still when told to.

Ha, so much hair. Here's another, this with one of the Pentax bodies with it looks like a Rikenon 50mm f/2 on it. This may be a K1000 with the single flash socket facing forward.

Looks just like my K1000.

15,000 unsorted photos on my phone. Here’s one I found. It reminds me on a renaissance painting…

How much warmth and fellowship has that OLAF fire pit provided?

This is becoming a trend

I'll actually post two photos I like a lot. Brings back a lot of memories.

My most favorite picture ever is when big brother got to meet little brother for the very first time.
It's been my wallpaper on my phone since it was taken over 7 years ago.

Not the best photo but certainly the most spectacular dryfall I have ever seen. About 2k down to the canyon floor. And all to ourselves.

 

[Doughboy]

I am no way a professional anything, but these are possibly my best, maybe I just like these the best. I know, I know, tree tops cut off, things are off, cell phone camera...

 

[stusic]

Awesome.
