Nice shots, Erich. I am thinking about dragging out my pld film acmeras myself this summer to do some retro experimenting.

Excellent work, Erich! Which lens or lenses did you use for these? I need to get my XD-11 down from the shelf and get and shoot.

Nothing fancy, Stan. These were done with the MD 50mm f/1.4 Thanks for taking a look. BTW, I usually shoot manual; but my XD-11 still works fine in aperture or shutter priority.

Double Trouble State Park is an old company town. They produced lumber and then cranberries. It was private until about the 1960's and then it was sold and made a park. The house in no. 1 used to be where the foreman lived with his family. Thanks for taking a look.

Wonderful set as usual Erich. I am fascinated by house for some reason. If the shot were mine, and its not, I would crop the right side to remove the more modern house in the background but leave the telephone pole and the cross bars, print it large and find wall space for it.

The crop suggestion is a good one. I don't know what it is about this photo; but it just "pops" for some reason. Good camera, good lens and good film, I guess. Thanks for taking a look. I think it might look really cool printed on metal?
