1940 Leica IIIb with 105mm lens

[Lesley Jones]

Sorry! I still can't remember the make of the lens and having just eaten dinner, I don't want to give myself indigestion by hauling all my equipment out of the cupboard.

Taken at a local War and Peace show. One of the German soldiers had fallen asleep in the sun!

Ha ha, great moment captured - can you remember what film you used? It has a lovely grain.

It certainly is a super composition. I love the opposing diagonals of rifle / machine gun and the angle of his legs. And then there is the figure in the background, snoozing also. Tones and grain complement the whole very well. Nice, nice, nice!

Hi Chris! I only use Ilford and I think in this case it was HP5. I tend to use it more than the FP4 because I love the way the grain looks when it is scanned

YES!
great film for pushing too!

I'm a big fan of Pan F - just can't beat a bit of Ilford
