Playing with the tides.

Couple more scans from today. These were taken at the beach while the tide was coming or going. The one of the incoming wave was the Nikkormat EL with Plus-X and the other is the Canonet with TMax 100 :)

Love the composition, texture, and tone of the first one.

Thanks Frog :D

second one does it for me, although it looks friggin' cold...

time to don a wetsuit methinks..

Thanks 3L :) I'm sure it's very cold, though I'm not about to test it out...LOL Surfers are still out there everyday though :D

Aaron,

The bottom one with the waves is gorgeous, its a shame you didn't include a bit more of the wet rock.

and I like the textures and tones in the first.

Roger

Nice shots, Aaron! I really like that first one.

I'm guessing the first one is Tmax?

Paul

Thanks Roger and Paul :D

Roger, I thought the same about the wet rock after looking at the negatives. Unfortunately, I was paying a little too close attention to timing a wave at the time :( I'll need to pay closer attention to the smaller details in future compositions.

Paul, you are correct. The top is TMax 100 with the Canonet and the bottom is Plus-X 125 with the Nikkormat EL w/50mm f/2 lens.

Great photos. I really like the second one. Just goes to show us how one can still capture great images on film.

Cheers,

WesternGuy

Hey, hey, hey... just because digital is faster and more convenient doesn't mean film is obsolete...LOL

Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad you liked the shots :)

Aaron
