Blue and Red (Test Shots, Mamiya 7).
Test Roll #1, Frames #4 and 5 of 10.
In the first shot I was re-familiarizing myself with the dynamic range, in the second the bokeh. In both I was testing for the focus accuracy of my rangefinder.
1/125 | f/4 for both images.
So far, so good.

Summer.
It started snowing here last week. It’ll be a long time before we get back to this…
Toothless and cyanotic.
One thing about the 6 x 7 format I really appreciate is that everything is depicted in a “grand” way (even blue tongues!) and truer to life vs. the 35mm format.
The effect is always visible to my eye, but becomes more apparent when comparing images from the two formats in a side-by-side fashion.

Po(i)sed (test shot).
This is a test shot involving some challenging (but beautiful) light.
The gear: Mamiya 7II + 80mm, and Kodak Portra 400 film.
The “test” part is referring to not only the camera gear, but also the film scanning.

They sold lemonade, orange juice, and some of their old toys… and raised $119.05.

Test Shot #4 from the first roll of film run through the Mamiya 7II.
