[Michael]

Wow!! youze been busy here.

My favorite subject for testing a new lens out.

Natalie,
Good portrait of the goat! He looks like he might have been getting ready to give you the ol' stink eye and a head butt!
Lorell, seriously, goat yoga? Tick Tock video?
I agree with Lorell on the swan, flexibility to die for!

Grant, definition of ethereal:  extremely delicate and light in a way that seems too perfect for this world

I agree!

Good angle on the foreground cross'

Michael, sharp lens! Take me to your leader!

[Dreamin]

Michael, what a cute model you have! Nice and sharp, too!
Thanks, all, for the nice comments.....
ABout goat yoga, I have seen videos where they pee or poo on somebody's back. No thanks!! LOL!

I posted colour in today's Pub. Again the Twist 60 F2.8

   

[Dave]

Some very fine additions over the past several days. Nice work, folks.

Here's one I took this morning and processed in color, converted to B&W, then tweaked to a high-contrast style...

   

I'll post the color version in the weekend Daily.

I rode the bike up to one of the covered bridges here in Georgia. This one you can actually drive through, not like most that don't allow vehicular traffic. Pretty sure I have posted photos of this bridge in the past, but this is from yesterday. Yashica D with Ilford FP4+ film. Played around with some filters as well.

As others have said, this has been a very popular thread and lots of great images here.

Dave, Contrasty and Delicate at the same time. Nice balance with subtle & with a seasoning of contrast with full flavor.
Don, I remember too many rolls of Plus X, Fp4. Pan F Hp5 etc. etc. etc....
Nice to see your mastery of tones and contrast, not to mention composition. I like the film edges showing too.

[Dreamin]

Grant, love the twist with focus on one blossom and blurred background!
Dave, ditto what Grant said....nice composition and love the framing.
Don...would love to go into that covered bridge! Great shot with the darker bridge against the more muted backdrop.

[Dave]

One more before this monthly challenge ends...
