Was out at a restaurant and didn't load the Zeiss Ikonta 532/16 properly, had to go to their bathroom, turn off the lights and reroll back the film.
When I rolled the film back, I must have not done it properly as the film stacked near the end so I lost a few frames and got double exposures, fortunately I was able to salvage this frame. Zeiss Ikonta 532/16 + HP5+ by earl dieta, on Flickr
What is interesting is the compressed image looks like there are those halo artifacts around the fronds. But a 1:1 crop shows they are actually not there:
p.s. I did not play w saturation etc. This is how it looks as a straight conversion. Position of sun in sky, camera placement, film type etc.
After months of careful and painstaking planning, I was finally able to capture a fleeting image of the rarely seen, and easily frightened, mouette de la mere.
(everything sounds fancier when you say it in French)

A couple more test shots with the Minolta Autocord and Porta 160. Still learning this camera but the results are pretty good. I'm using a Reflx light meter that sits on the hot shoe . . . handy little gadget.
