A few more biscuits
« on: September 29, 2010, 05:44:47 am »

The Biscuit Tin

I've popped a few more biscuits into the above tin over on the website - some newer and some with beards. Maybe even a couple of ginger nuts, but I'm afraid no chocolate dipped ones, but at leat one sweetie and my poor old classic Ford. Yeah, right.

Rob, I just had a very pleasant journey through your biscuit tin. Very nice indeed! And you are good with titles, something I've always been uncomfortable doing ("Untitled # 7,256" isn't very inspiring).

But I had to wonder where you found a model with the unusual name of "500CM, 150 mm Sonnar, Ekatachrome 64, Scotland."

Cheers,

Eric

Rob,
Is picture number ten "my magical sixties" been published? It looks extremely familiar to me.
My favorites are: "mixed blessings", "buddy too late", "scotland", "bar avenidas", "DIY Jack", "evolution", "and the winner is"


No, you are probably remembering it from here, where I showed it to represent what happens when you copy a 6x6 Ekta with a D700 on a lightbox.

The shot was with a Mamiya C33(?) and a 180mm and was just for my muse and me to enjoy - 'Twiggy' eyelashes and those lips painted over and beyond the natural, which was flavour of the month at the time... as I said, Golden Era.

Thanks for viewing!

Forgive the scruntching of quotation lines, but I have either to save space in the box or use Word!

The answer to your question of where: In Scotland, of course; you can find almost anything there. If you look carefully or, easier, import it. With Rusty, I thought it kinder to show his good side. Thanks for looking in - now the problem begins for real because I have to start making new originals! I do have something planned but am awaiting an external set of replies before I know the form it might take. Almost as stressful as working again. No, that wasn't actually stressful at all; it's the lack of working that creates the strain and pain.
