Have you ever had a fun idea for photographing vegetables, but then couldn't find your fluorescent chalk? Fortunately I found some paint that would work, at least for trying out the idea. https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157675065925797 In the future, I might need to primer the

Here is my "best of 2018" album. https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157675062835057/ I have also felt unenthused and often disenthused about my photography. I had a couple of months where I just put a half decent photo in my monthly best of album so that I'd at least have a

Hello Godfrey, Your message couldn't be more timely. I have just finished a (forgotten) roll of film in my Bessa R3A with a Nokton Classic 40mm f/1.4. To my surprise, I could not find anywhere around developing the (C41) film in it. Now I got a Tetenal kit to develop it at home. I just need to

I have mixed feelings about this. Nice color, details, sharp, focus ok. But, I believe you cropped quite a bit to get this tight a shot. Good thing, in order to show the color, detail, focus etc. But, for me, it means that the shot is a simple portrait with little life. If the area you show
