Joseph,

Thanks for compliment. I've made self portraits with almost every camera I've owned, nearly always with the camera in view. It's a catalog of photo mementos. Will be nice in my old age to view them and reminisce where and when I used my cohort of camera. Hey, wait a minute! Ain't I already in my old age? Hells bells, I'm 85! I was about 35 in the Rollei shot above. It's a souvenir of me without a pot belly.

My earlier comment emphasized your architectural shots and neglected to say anything about your images with people. The ones with several to good sized crowds in both groups in this thread are extra special-- not a person out of place--that is more than talent, it's brilliant. The pic with only lower legs is a gem.

Keep showering us with your wonderful work, Joseph.

Hello from France,

Very nice job with your Rolleiflex !
I use several Rolleiflex (pre war, post war) and all are very good performers.
If you want to see some photos taken with the Old standard, you can have a look here :

Beautiful photos, Yannick! I just looked through your work with the Old Standard, and the pictures just amazing! "Equilibre" is one of my favorites there - but it's so hard to choose from so many excellent ones in your set.

A really nice mix of technique, Yannick.  The IR shots developed in Caffenol are amazing.

Thanks for sharing those, Yannick, I think you may have driven me to get mine out and recalibrated so I can work with it some more. Also liked the IR-ish shots, and the Father's Day card was very sweet.
