Thanks dude! And btw, I agree with what you said regarding Pauls photos, what an inspiration! And most of them are in my ref folder. I don't know a lot about photography really, only the basic about fstop, shutter speed and not a lot more than that. Even my lenses are pretty basic. (That reminds me, I need to start…
Here are a couple of pics from my trip to Alaska taken with my old canon in panoramic mode. Pardon the h*w ratio. I went hog wild on some of them and they got really wide! Coastal Shot Glacier Bay
First time oging out for street photography, and this is my second roll of film ever. These are the best from said roll. (I like the second one for it's curvy motion created by the flapping pigeons). Zenit E with a Pentacon 50mm lens and Era 100 b/w film.

You'll need either an expensive dedicated film scanner (coolscans, hassy flextight etc) or a newer flatbed film scanner from epson or canon (canoscan). Dedicated film scanners feed on film, while the flatbeds function like regular scanners. EDIT: Just saw your previous post. B&W developing is dead easy, especially with…
Love the B&W shot chrizz1. HP this cathedral looks great- love the composition and the editing :) Ben that looks great on the wall - I am done spending money on gear for now so I will try to print few very soon- then I will probably need some help picking the best one :). Still have not seen print from my 5d :( I am…
