I came to shoot the Henry Moore sculpture in the gardens of the modern art gallery in Edinburgh, just ten minutes walk from here, and was distracted by two beautiful girls. They saw me, and I asked if they minded if I took a shot. The one on the right said, "Is that a Rollei?", so I knew we were off to a good start. She seemed a little disappointed when I said it was a Mamiya (C330S), but said, "Go on then", and proceeded to ignore me. Perfect.
Originally shot with Kodak Portra 400, but it came out all dark green. There was a lot of greenery around, but everything turned green. I tried playing with it in pShop, but eventually gave up and opened up Nik Silver. I quite like it now. It was a VERY hot day...and I think the b&w treatment shows that more than the green version did.

It's moments like this where I wish I had a card to hand to the 'models' with a my flickr address, and say to them: It might be there in a week or two IF it turns out and has any worth - as maybe they would like to see it. Anyone here do such a thing?
