52@52 Week 31

I took the Travelwide out at lunch time on Tuesday. I used the Linhof viewfinder I bought last week. It makes framing a lot easier.

I also swapped out lenses. This is using the Linhof-selected Angulon 90mm f/6.8 lens from around 1972 rather than the 1937 beater I had loaded on the camera. I think it’s still a little soft in the corners, but less so.

I went back to black and white this week. It’s fun playing with color, but I like the look of black and white better. I need to look at getting a yellow filter for the Angulon, see if it’s possible.

Shot this on Tri-X TXP 320, handheld, f/22 at 1/100 of a second.

I love living at the shore. Not crazy about what that means for my commute, but while I’m here, it’s wonderful.

What do you mean there is no cat?

"You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat."

- Albert Einstein, explaining radio
