July Sunday Afternoon in the Annex

Image
  I stared this roll a sunny Sunday July afternoon down in the Annex, met up with Jo-Anne for dinner at the Victory Cafe. I finished the roll two days later along Dupont/Davenport one part of town I don't shoot much. One shot I really wanted was of the Avenue Road Diner, it's one of those older Yorkville spots that might not be long for this world with the pace of redevelopment being what it is.  The camera choice was one of my Nikon F2SB's the best pre Ai Nikkor body, rolled with K series Pre Ai 50 F1.4 and 28 F2.8 along with Ilford FP4 125, the timeless classic.  Sometimes I wonder why I pack my 105 F2.5 Nikkor P.C. lens, but then, you just never know.  Camera: Nikon F2SB, Nikkor Pre Ai Lenses.  Film: Ilford FP4 125, Ilfotec HC 1+31.

Downtown in July

Image
  Been a minute since I last shot with one of my Nikkormats, so I pulled out an FT2, put on a Nikkor O 35 F2 lens, and went downtown. Well I had too, it was a trip to the bank with my brother to deal with some remaining business with my mom's estate, didn't take long and I was back on the street.  So far this has been a 100 ISO Summer, I broke that with the roll of Tri-X I shot here, and shot through a mid 1970s Nikkormat FT2, it seems right.  Nikkormat FT2, Nikkor O 35 F2 lens.  Film: Kodak Tri-X 400, Ilfotec HC 1+31.
