A standing body of water in a very idyllic side valley near Hinterweidenthal, fed by the Mühlenbach stream. The tranquility is almost tangible, and it goes without saying that the well-known Elwetritschen (good-natured Palatine goblins, not related to or affiliated with the Bavarian Wolpertinger) have retreated to this secluded valley due to human curiosity. The Woog (pond) is easily accessible on foot or by bike, though it is hidden in dense greenery, making it easy to overlook
The „Heidenturm“ is part of the 420-meter-high rock ridge "Heidenberg" (near Busenberg/Erlenbach) in the southeastern Wasgau, which rises directly south of the Drachenfels castle ruins. On the western slope of the ridge is the striking rock formation „Buchkammerfels“, and at the easternmost corner of the mountain lies the „Schlüsselfelsen“, also known as „Heidenpfeiler“. Due to the name "Heiden“, a Celtic settlement can be inferred.

I used my 1946-47 IIIc with my 1936 50mm f SUMMAR . It gave some flare even though I had painted the lens hood with Matt Black Paint I guessed the focus as photos were taken at waist level.

I've had the X1 for a couple of weeks now and I'm just starting to get used to it. It is a delight to use. Forget the negative stuff - it's just superb in everyday use.
My Hasselblad returned From Sweden. This was shot handheld with my 80mm at 60 f2.8. My 1st roll of film was Rollei 80s .
I used Caffenol C-L to develop it with the following receipe
Washing Soda (Stabil) 16g/l
Vit -C 10 g/l
Potassium Bromide 1.5 g/l
Instant Coffee 40g/l
for 50 mins @ 20°c . Agitation for the first minute then left to stand in a water bath. The negative was scanned and slightly adjusted for midtones . I added a Vignette for effect.
This is a fab film and a great way to develop it
Created in LP 2.6. Originally was a daytime picture. Moon by Lunarcell. All work in OS9. It took me about ten hours to isolate the shrimpers and netting, wires etc. from the original sky so that I could insert a different sky which was created in LP. Probably couldn't be created in any other editing software.
