Christmas Holidays in the Beaches Part Two

Image
 Oops, I did this ass backwards, Monday's blog post was supposed to be the last of the three posts, and this the first, oh well. While on here it's still early winter between Christmas and New Year's, time loses all meaning anyway.  I ran with the black 50th Anniversary Leicaflex SL2, it handles the cold well, shame the meter is DOA, but it's not the end of the world, I popped Doomo's Hot Shoe meter on and got decent exposures.  Now, I shot exclusively with the 2 Cam 35 F2.8 Elmarit R lens, and now questioning do I really need a 3 cam 35 F2 Summicron or just look for a 3 cam 35 F2.8 Elmarit instead? Something I'll have to think about.  Camera: Leicaflex SL2, Two Cam 35 F2.8 Elmarit R Lens.  Film: Ilford HP5 400, 510 Pyro 1+100.

I took both my Leicaflex SL and 50th anniversary SL2 along with a 2 cam 35 F2.8 Elmarit lens (great glass I got for a steal, wish it was 3cam), 50 F2 Summicron and a two cam 135 F2.8 Tele Elmarit.  It was a green Christmas but followed by snow storm on Boxing Day, my brother and his family managed to fly out before Pearson International grounded flights. I drove down to the Beaches from Midtown Toronto and I couldn't see the other side of the Don Valley from the Millwood Bridge. You're wondering, where's the snow in your photos? Well, following day there was rain, lots of it. I shot all of three rolls in the Beaches. The Weather was pretty gloomy overall. In the end I caught up with a lot of reading, and walking Maya, my brotther's dog.  Camera: Leicaflex SL, 2 Cam R 50 F2 lens.  Film: Ilford HP5 500, 510 Pyro 1+100.  ...
