Nice ones dpc! I like the dramatic sky in the waterfall picture and the sense of open space in the birch copse.
What do you use in post? Especially in the 'wall' picture the greens appear to be relatively bright...

Nice portrait Pookie, I like the lighting which (to me) reduces the "posed" aspect of the picture

Thanks! I post-processed the file in ON1 Photo RAW 2017 and Lightroom 5.7 and converted to monochrome in Affinity monochrome.

Here is one from a stranger shoot today... counted up my total after about 14 years of doing this. I ask rather than sneak candids. Thought I had about 3k but turn out closer to 5k. Joshua is my typical find, couldn't pass him up without turning around and approaching him. I use to get turned down about 40% of the time but now I'm easily getting 90%or better agreeing now.

Rollieflex 2.8f
Kodak Tmax 400
DD-X 1+4 (8:00@20c)

Memories... probably the most important aspect of photography to me. Moments captured in time.

Here is a stranger shot from last evening. Michael, waiting for a ride and asked about my camera, so it was a perfect intro to ask for his street portrait. He was pretty uncomfortable but agreed.

Good portrait. There's a rather detached, far away look in the fellow's eyes. I agree about memories.

Decades past: not sure of the camera, likely an AE-1 for the first two. My dad took the last one with a Nikon.
