Hmm. May be it was targeted to those who didn’t get any comments on the Presentation Board. I posted sunrise shots in Landscape board but didn’t get any replies. That could be it.

And another from the National Gallery, after I felt like just skipping lunch and visit the latest exhibition on Impressionism, on loan from the Musee d'Orsay, to clear my head
Had planned for it previously but kept putting it off, then by chance I notice it was going off in a couple of weeks time so if not now then when
I was pretty amazed she pulled out her book and started sketching like that... then she added colour and I was mindblown
Many years ago, I did the same, sketching figure studies from the Rodin museum in Philadelphia, but I was nowhere near that level of skill
I didn't get/make many shots in there
Decided to keep my camera in my hoodie pocket after watching the nth tourist take exact replica smartphone photos of each painting

Zabriskie?
That movie was a fantasy of mine. Antonioni, Jerry Garcia, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, 60's counterculture, lovemaking in the desert, and a lead actor who robbed a bank and was killed in prison (in real life)

The 2nd shot was at Twenty Mule Team Canyon close to Zabriskie Point. The 1st shot was the Black Mtns. near Ashford Mill ruins.
These are taken at Zabriskie Point, the most over-photographed spot in Death Valley. Even so, it's still an amazing place except for all the iPhone-toting tourists with selfie sticks.

Thanks, Kristian. It may be "cool" but it's recorded the hottest air temperatures anywhere on earth.
To me living in a pretty cold, but not so cool place this kind of landscape is very exotic. I guess I would´nt be able to stay alive much long living in Death Valley in those temperatures..
From the film and slide copies the keeper rate has been dramatically low.
8 - 10 from a roll of 36 would on average be quite good actually.
I have many films that should have been thrown away many years ago. What was I thinking.
Some rolls I have been fortunate to retain 1 frame.
Though others I have had quite good success and have only kicked out four or five from the whole roll ....
I have not worked out the average .... a piece of work too far I think.
I have noticed and remembered that some of the films were pushed way beyond their limits. Typically ASA400 pushed to 1600 ..... noticeable in the flying car pix .... you could use a paint brush to create the grain in them !!
But vintage is what it is ..... we like vintage lenses .... so sometimes we have to go with the results we get with vintage film !!
A few more from a different event - taken at a small race-track in Cheshire UK at a small event with vintage cars. Like 1960's style
Some times it is like daddy dancing .... you know you shouldn't do it .... but .... you just have to look !!

Couple for Spring Blossom shots. Both shot with Nikkor 20mm f4 AI with the same subject in mind. But different style execution.
As sun was setting, I was able to capture this change in lighting from my apartment view. Spring time by Ramkumar Sangameshwar, on Flickr
This was an ambitious shot. I mounted my camera sideways on tripod then held it outside as close to the tree as I could with focus set to minimum and lens stopped down to f5.6. One might think wide open glasses dont isolate subjects but once I got close with help of holding the tripod leg, this photo came to life the way I had planned.
