To start this new page, here are a few images in square format from the Canadian Prairies in 2017 and the Fuji X-E2 with unspecified MFNG.

Ah, it's been a long long while.
Life has taken a different turn (all for the good) which means I don't get the Nikkors out as much as I'd like to.
Did however take the 16/3.5 AI to an International Biathlon Union (IBU) competition at Soldier Hollow (near Salt Lake City, Utah) last weekend and used it on the Sony A7C.
Here's a few select shots. Most at F/5.6 or f/8.

Another fine tour of Rome, and history Serge. So many places I get to see through this forum while having a tea break. Thanks!


James, glad you enjoy the travel photos. I am more than happy to do the leg work.

I was going to ask where you have the film developed but see you have a nice processing lab at the house. Someday, I would like to take the Nikkormat EL for a spin but the film processing part holds me back.

Very nice portrait of the young lady.

Serge, If you can pour a scotch - you can develope b&w film. A fancy mixed drink is analogous to c41 or e6 processing. I'm just scratching an itch to do it the old way before I can't do it. To be honest, digital is so superior to 35mm film it isnt even close. The first digital cameras were like Seurat doing pointillism with a few thousand dots - now it is multi-millions.

As much as one likes to admire the sharpness pf 15mm 5.6 ais, there are better subjects out there.

California is green, green, and it is still raining.

But the 15mm 5.6 at home with wonderful field curvature that keeps the sides and corners super sharp to the with a matching subject:

Is not as interesting as the 50-300mm ed ais with a more colorful subject.

Processing above Nikon software, below lightroom classic.

Well, I know I'm getting old and losing my mind! This past weekend, I decided to take my two grandsons for a "hike." They are 4 & 8, so it was really just a short walk through the woods. I decided to take just the Z6 ii and 35/2 Nikkor-O with me. We loaded up in the truck and drove about 10 miles to the Piedmont National Wildlife Refuge in central GA. I parked the truck and we piled out ready to hike. Only then did i realize that my camera was still sitting on the kitchen table at home!

Oh well, we still had a good time and they didn't care that I left the camera at home. I know I'm getting older, but I'm too young to completely forget the camera!

Here's a photo that I took on one of my many previous trips. I may have posted this once before, but, if so, here it is again. I selected this photo because it's in the same area my grandsons and I visited.

Nikon Zfc, 25-50/4

Nice contrast of green and dry.

Just be glad it was the camera and not the kids.

Some more Carlsbad flowers, I just sit in a road above the fields and the 6x range of the 50-300mm 4.5 ED ais comes in handy.

I have more Tea Cup ideas to pursue, but this all got started by my youngest son Sam after he came back from participating (played snare drum) in the Scottish highland games tattoo/festival in 2022. (I probably messed up the event name) While in Scotland he developed a taste for tea. He recently got two huge boxes, and I love both of them - rekindling my own tea addiction. I fine the topic one I need to visually work through, but it is fun. Here are five more to go with the expired Tri-X film and first Tea Cup photo.

All shot with the D850 and the Nikkor 35mm f1.4 ais wide open

Oh that's a bummer, and I bet in the absence of a camera, many photo opportunities were observed.

I recall this picture. There were two versions of it posted. I think the other was black and white.
