A New Batch

[Rob MacKillop]

Out with the Leica M-A with a Leitz 50mm f/4 lens, and some Delta 400. A really cold and dull day. First time I'd used the Voigtlander cold-shoe light meter, a nifty little thing. It tended to over-expose a little, so I've brought the highs down a bit.

1. Murrayfield - Scotland's National Rugby Stadium, and where I saw the Rolling Stones last year.




2. Mad River Reflection






3. Steps 1






4. Steps 2





5. Under The Brig 1





6. Under The Brig 2





7. Water of Leith

 

[Chris Bennett]

Very nice Rob.
The reflection one is great.
Does Mad River run through Edinburgh?

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Yes. Madness does too.

It's my local river, The Water of Leith, which I'm doing a year-long project on now.

 

[Pete Askew]

Nice set, Rob. I especially like the steps. And that reflection is certainly pretty mad!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Pretty AND mad

 

[Rhonda Smith]

Definitely mad and pretty. But I especially like that close-up of the steps. Nice series.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, RJ. Appreciated.

 

[Dave Farnes]

Nice set Rob. I like the contrast between the structure of the stadium and the form of the trees. The steps pics work very well.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Dave.

 

[Dave Young]

Very nice Rob, particularly like the first one of Murrayfield.

How are you liking the M-A. A lot I’m guessing.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Cheers, Dave. It's the best film camera I've ever had. Love it!
