beautiful image, mixing some small colorfoul details (humans!) on a smooth washed-out background. Nice reflections too, from somewhat sharp to diffuse.

What is being reflected (faint yellow) on the left side? any kind of cliff, or a building?

Airy, thank you very much.
This is a reflection of grass in the winter dormancy phase on a very steep hillside.
The beach is at the top end of a fjord.
Dimensions are easily way off there.

a quick steal on a black beach on the Faroe Islands
Fascinating image...something about the huge blue field and the small but colorful humans...the camera angle...I like it.

Indeed, this is a beautiful color composition.

If the framing is a bit off it's because she was more interesting than the photographers ;) Advert being filmed in Siracusa, Sicily.

This one was taken in 2009 on Ilford HP5+. I was not the only photographer interested in the steam-powered clock in Vancouver's Gastown.

Not quite in action, but I hit upon these two photo enthusiasts in Long Beach, CA, and stopped for a little chat. The vintage camera was worth a shot by itself in the evening light.

Agree.  I have the later model, the 124G which produces quite decent images.

LOL, you made the right call!  ;D

(Of course, you could crop them out and fix the framing and post else where.  ;D )

Thanks Hugh, yes it was in such an immaculate shape. I recall these cameras from the time I started with photography, I might even have had a toy mockup model of a dual reflex camera at very young age.
