I bought a roll of 35mm Velvia 50 last year and decided to use it this winter in my Nikon FM3a. It took me a couple of months to get through the roll and I never had conditions that would show off its qualities, but I did get some nice shots, all with a Zeiss Distagon 35mm/1.4 ZF.

@OregonSun@ ..boy, it's really foggy where you are! 😀
In the winter, when it's not raining, the upper Willamette valley often gets a temperature inversion that creates fog on the valley floor. There are a few local hikes that allow you to get above the fog. We've had a lot of inversion this winter, but last Sunday was the first time it's been on a weekend so I made the most of it and shot a whole roll.

Up here, at the north end of the Willamette (it flows south to north} where it meets the Columbia River, there has been just enough west wind through the gorge to give us blindingly bright days.

Don't you mean 'down here'? You know, since the river flows 'down' the valley
