Been a while since I posted one of these and i was looking back at some old images I shot when I still had my M9 and was reviewing the 35 Summilux. I found some images I shot of some Joshua trees and put them in a little film strip. I am working on a big film post for a great Friday Film article that will feature images from the Bronica 645, Diana Toy Camera, The Leica CL and the Contaxt T2. So look for that on Friday!

You mean to tell us that you got rid of your M9!? How could you? That must have been a hard loss!
Yea, I mentioned this a couple of weeks back. I had to..extreme personal situation. No choice, but am saving for another.

Wow. These are quite nice, Steve. you live in an area that has some beautiful scenery. No Doubt!
Thanks Elaine..
Steve, since you got rid of your M9, you might as well save up for MP (new or used) and start shooting more film. Knowing the M9 is good but film will always give that special look that digital can’t, especially in b&w IMO.
Joshua tree… First & Fourth Images have got a lovely barren mood.
Thanks, I think so as well.
Really nice Steve, I like the slightly metallic look, I’ve got great buildings in Cambridge but the US has the most amazing scenery.
Thanks!
Lovely images. How come you got so many interesting locations to take pictures of?
Thanks! Actually, I used to have more but since I moved, it has gotten a bit harder to find cool locations. This was on the way to Las Vegas from Phoenix, AZ. Thanks
Lovely captures, Steve. I’d like to see an article on re-visiting old images, as it’s amazing that these made it onto your hard drive but were forgotten until your revisit. Outstanding stuff!
Nicely done Steve! Is that “The” Joshua tree?
