Lovely pictures with a fairytale feel to them. I have added the Biometar to the lens list and should show up on your quick lens set in your exif data window for quick assignment to other photos.

This series of Winter Photos was taken on my 1972 Pentacon Six made in East Germany by Carl Zeiss Pentacon and the lens is the 80mm f2.8 Carl Zeiss Jena Biometar. I used outdated Ilford FP4 220 size, home-processed in a home-made developer Formula PH35. Grad Yellow Filter used on most. This one I did a 20x16" Exhibition print and it got some awards at my Camera Club.

thanks for viewing -- well, I never worry what people say about my photos- I don't get all annoyed (unlike MANY on Photo Forums ! ) as I have been in Camera Clubs since 1951 and lots of Judges have commented good and bad ! This photo was taken on my first 'Foreign Trip'with the newly-bought Hasselblad and I had only one lens then the 80mm CFE Planar so I needed a wider angle of view,and also camera was balanced on a rail,as I got a long shutter speed so not the BEST Composition !
Regards--- Peter.

a church in Austria -- I forget the name-- where 'Sound of Music' wedding scene was filmed. I used available light + a small amount of flash from a Sunpak unit, on outdated Kodak Ektachrome EPP 100 film.

A Rollei 3.5E Planar GIVEN to me by a fellow Camera Club member-- the winder had to be repaired but works OK now. I tried it out in Chelmsford with 1987 dated Kodak Plus X film rated at 64 ASA.

This is wonderful. If it were not for the random display of pictures I would have missed it.

Just noticed this in the Random pics. I like these types of shots. Makes me wonder what else is around there. Good shot.

This is nice and has some interesting lighting. Have you tried one with less warmth to it and more grays? I am curious to see the difference. I personally have a hard time finding a balance with my pictures of too much or too little split tone.

Thanks for the comments guys....just for people to know the softtware I use for the B+W conversions is Nik software Silver Efex Pro.It brings out the best in the Zeiss lens.
