Lake Garden: My Third Visit

My first visit to Lake Garden was with my Exa 1C and Exacta, both SLR's, but with manual focus and no exposure meter. The photo results were fairly good. I was using 200ASA film, which seemed suitable for the sunny weather.

On my second trip, I used the fully automatic exposure on my Leica R7, fitted with a telephoto lens, and with high speed 400 ASA film. The photos seemed to have a blue tinge.

On this third visit, I used my top of the range Leica R8, with a 28-70mm lens and with the slower Fujifilm 200ASA.

The results were, in my opinion, the best.

Leicaflex SL2 Photo Selection

Leica pin-up girl!

Just a small selection of photos taken with my Leicaflex SL2 film camera.

I was in the 'experimental' stage at this time, and only had a 50mm lens fitted.

More and better photos taken with this lovely camera are on the way...

Photo Visit to Shah Alam Mosque and Surrounds

The beautiful Shah Alam mosque was a delightful backdrop to the gardens, lake, stream and ponds that surround the house of prayer.

The photos I took with my Leicaflex SL2 camera were a disaster. I am still not sure if it was a problem with the developing or the fact the film had been in the camera too long. However, I learnt a lesson; develop quickly!

The photos posted were taken with my Leica R7 film camera, fitted with the Leica 28-70mm lens and loaded with Kodak 200ASA film.

The day was perfect for photography, with a blue and cloudy sky and lots of sunlight.

Overall, I was delighted with the photos, and enjoy sharing them with you.

I like the movement of the boy in the background running towards the camera
