I always wonder where time goes; it passes quickly and renders everything ephemeral. To me 1969 seems just like yesterday yet to most people it appears like ancient times. The location was Fontainbleu France. I had my Canon FT with the 50 mmF: 1.4 FL lens loaded with Agfachrome 50. It was a nice enough film that cost only $2.99 including world wide processing by Agfa. Those who have only shoot digital and never used film, cannot realize that there was the cost of film and processing to consider. At any rate this was a nice film that rendered the greens with a tint of yellow. But it's Achilles heel was it's ability to turn magenta after some time. This was actually dependent on the particular labs used. I kept them in color but a conversion to black and white would have hidded these shortcomings. I like the colors here because they add to the image. As usual I was not far away.
Greetings, this blog is dedicated to my life in photography and my passion for good Italian food.. I want to make this a place to stop and relax. In the hope that this will provide some respite and peace. Thank you for visiting.
