I made a video about taking my new to me Leicaflex SL2 out to capture landscapes. It's so much fun to use :)

Evening light at the marsh.

#photography 📷 #nature
Warm evening light diffused by trees on the horizon, provide glowing back light for puffball cattails on the marshland.

Black and white image of marshland in early spring. Brown grasses, and fading cattails in the foreground. A snaking waterway meets the treeline, that connects to a large, cloudy sky.

Grey sky overlooks marsh like conditions on local dykelands. A long since fallen tree sits on the edge of a small waterway, with cliffs on the horizon.

A few digital shots from the same walk in the ravine. Going to be going back soon with a few fresh rolls of film :)

Close up of the root ball of a mature tree fallen by a storm. A mass of roots, reaching out at all angles from the earth that they are encased in. A shaded side of the ravine with a few spots of light, hitting water, and trees that have long since fallen down the embankment.

When you don't realize the film in your camera isn't advancing.
Makes me want to revive my shelved multiple exposure project idea.

A black and white image consisting of multiple overlapping frames. Mostly only thing discernible is light through a stand of trees, from various angles.

A breezy seventeen Celcius, a week before spring arrived, and now we're back to below zero.

Even though winter ice, and snow has it's appeal, so does mid summer, evening walks among the greenery. I know which one is the most appealing at the moment :)
