Palace and Castle

[Alex_B]

... just the first tries with my Tachihara and a Symmar 150mm f/5.6 convertible.

Don't expect fine art here, theses are mere technical experiments with tilt and shift

1: A palace / castle close to my hometown:
(on ADOX CHS 50, a panchromatic 1950s emulsion)

2: door in the inner courtyard
(ADOX 25 orthochromatic film)

Detail from the centre of the image:

So I consider this decent central sharpness (f/16), and the lens is over 50 years old

3: Another door, this time at the triangular Wewelsburg Castle in central Germany, note the empty beer bottle :

Very nice, love the last one's perspective.

I like the first one great reflection! Last picture is pretty cool too.

Thanks guys!

Now the shutter is stuck at the slow speeds. But I guess this can be fixed soon. Until then, I can only shoot wide angle now ... or do fully manual exposure > 1/2 sec. with a stop watch ;-)
