I was a wedding photographer for 31 years and Hasselblad was my camera and it never let me down. I sold it when I retired and went digital. Now Im very sorry I ever sold it. Ive collected a lot of old cameras . I had two box's Of them in my attic. One was robbed when I had more insulation put in. My bad, I should have never trusted those guys. You live and learn. Im 91 and still learning.

The Xpan was a 36x72 format camera, 3 interchangeable lenses, very expensive.
Awesome, Mike! I did fall in love with # Five!

These shots are so beautiful. When I blew them up they looked like paintings.
The artistry in your composition and the ability to blow up a scene is just great.
In modern photography the emphasis on sharpness seems over done. I think without
expertise that folks like film because it has more of a painted look. All the makers make
camera's that are really good images. And then folks want bokeh to see the swash
of color that makes an emotional shot of a portrait.
Thanks for sharing these images. They are very special.

Mike ... I know your age and health conditions.., you must have thousands of beautiful Photos that are as we have all seen ..”exquisite” .., I have to ask ..., have you a destination for all of these when you take your skills upstairs to a higher calling ., ? Like a museum.., a book ..., grand kids ..or ... they are too precious to wither away in a box ... and lost ..your photos represent you as a photographer ..., what a legacy to leave for all to see ...
