Thanks guys for the likes in the Smokies. Some of those photos may not be possible now at all. We are devistated in our park, loss of life, loss of forests, and loss of landmarks and properties. Today, we did get a lot of rain, I hope it helps put the fires out...

I miss photography, I have just been diverted into music, and busier than a bumble bee in the spring. I have a little photo gear left, all my Leica. :-)

Hey Andrew, Edward, Gary, Zhangyue, just to name a few of those I remember! Long time!

Doug

Good to see you back here Doug. I hope the fires can be extinguished very soon. So many losses...

Echoing Edward's comments Doug - I remember your posts.

Wildfires (or worse still, arsonist-started forest fires) are terrible, as we also know here.

A bride from China, who traveled from Szechuan with her groom, a couple of friends and a photographer to be married in Chiang Mai. Here, I photographed her in the coffee shop cum photo gallery of the small film photo lab (UNG Handcraft Darkroom). The group stopped to have lattés, before continuing their photo shoot of the bridal couple in the street. She's wearing a white wedding dress. The photographer, who spoke some English, came over to me and said, "Oh, you have an M3. I used to have an M6." Indeed, this is the first picture I shot with the virtually pristine Leica M3 that I just received from Japan, at the end of a roll of Tri-X that I had shot to test the shutter speeds.

I believe I have now completed the conversion process of my recently-purchased Contax G21 f2.8 Biogon to LM, using the hawk's DIY kit.

It certainly wasn't without issues, however at the end of the day Hawk Peng supplied a replacement component from the kit, shaved by 1mm, enabling me to achieve what I regard as acceptable infinity focus. I'm certainly not sure that the exercise was worth the considerable combined cost of the lens and the Hawk kit.

I'm happy to share more details of the conversion experience by PM should anyone be interested.

I do see the expected edge improvements over my CV21 f/4, however I guess buying a ZM21 would have been no more expensive.

The first photo was taken with the CV21/4 on a Ricoh GXR A12, simply as part of a sequence of shots I did for comparison purposes. The converted lens definitely has a less aesthetic appearance due to the dull metal finish of the Hawk components.

I code the converted lens manually as the Elmarit-M 21 f/2.8 (11134); this produces some colour-shifts at the edges but is noticeably better than if coded as the ASPH version (11135 / 11897). 6-bit coding pits are provided with the kit bayonet once the user wishes to do that.

This next photo, was step-wise sharpened from the fullsize jpeg-RAW edit in C1 Pro 9.3. I still find this gives subtle improvements in the final image over a 1-step output directly from C1 Pro although I generally go the latter route unless it's a special case. Apologies if this 1600w image screws with your viewing device! This is at f11.

I've been thinking for the last nine months been about returning to film and have started a thread called, Go back to film? Sell the M9-P/MM? Wanna talk me down? It's only three pages and has numerous examples of Tri-X and M-Monochrom shots.
 
On page 3, I come to a conclusion (posts #92, 96 and 100) that, right now, as long as there is this excellent, small hand-development lab in Chiang Mai that I use, it’s worthwhile for me to continue shooting film — and, if I go back to digital, it is likely to be in “binges” of six months or a year and then return for a binge of film. 
 
Conceptually I've thought the following: if you think of two circles (digital and film) intersecting for the bulk of their areas, leaving on either side a crescent that does not intersect — take the crescent of the film circle: that's the area of film properties, or "look", that one cannot get from digital without "major fakery." That's what makes me interested in film. In the referenced thread someone on has been kind enough to draw these circles to make the concept vivid graphically.
 
An example of what drives my film shooting can be illustrated through the two sets of photographs below — one film, one digital; one set of unposed street portraits and the other a set of landscapes in the same locality. Now, remember I’m only thinking of 35mm and Tri-X for film, not taking into account medium format or slower films, which could change the size of the crescents.
