I've shared some of my recent pics at work. I NEVER show anyone my photos outside of the community here. A few in and I get a positive response BUT also an invite to join a photo a week commitment thing and I understand if that works for you but I am far too disorganized for that!

Probably not the intended use of a 595 but I am revelling in being able to go and get garden supplies and actually *fit them in the car*

Isoo headland, Yakushima. I initially thought this hadn't worked but the stark movement of the tree branches was what I was going for and on second viewing I like it. #BelieveInFilm #PaperNehative.

I really like using it in combination with the 5D...which I surprised myself by enjoying immensely. Results were damned good too.
Developed my LF paper negs this morning. I am pleased to say I did not lug the intrepid up some quite technical trails for nothing!

The hugely impressive boulders at the base of Creagan Tealasdale (Mealaisbhal) and Loch Mhor na Clibhe.
A shortish pathless walk across the moors of West Lewis which offered some great views into the heart of the mountains.
