| Hello, all!
|
| My name's Ron. I'm an amateur (photographer, that is) in Columbus, OH,
USA.
|
| I've been lurking here for a couple of years now... I think I had one
post
| when I first started looking at Leicas (and I bought my 35mm Summicron
from
| Phong here), but I've been silent since. I've been trying to
re-dedicate
| myself to getting out and shooting, so I've started a PAW project.
This week
| is the first time since I started where I was shooting with my M6.
|
| To make my LUG debut all the more nerve-wracking, I had very little
(less
| than usual, even) to choose from this week. I did, however, learn two
| things:
|
| 1) I am not yet capable of estimating development times for films shot
at
| ASAs for which I do not have a chart; and
|
| 2) Even if you underdevelop your film by quite a bit, you can still
salvage
| an image if you point your camera directly at the sun:

|
| Not much, I know, but the point of this is to make myself do it, post
it,
| and take my lumps, right?
|
| The PAW index (three weeks old!) can be found here:

|
| And some other stuff of mine is here:

|
| Thanks to all who look, comment, or criticize! I hope to hear from
some of
| you...
|
|
| Seeya,
|
| Ron
|
|My pleasure thanks for sharing
