Title: Post your favorite previously unseen photo of 2017
Post by: 02Pilot on December 27, 2017, 01:51:32 PM
Year-end, time for reflection, yadda yadda yadda. We've all posted various photos throughout the year; now's the time to pick out that one shot from 2017 that, for whatever reason, didn't get shown earlier but deserves to see the light of day before the year is out. You know you've got one (OK, you probably have more than one, but that's your problem...).

I'll start:

I shot this quite recently with barely a light of day.

Great idea for a thread.

I considered posting this in a recent holiday-best-wishes thread but judged it to be too humbuggy.

The outside wall of the Centro Atlético in Cantanhede, Portugal.  Olympus OM1, 35mm Zuiko lens, Fujicolor 200, processed and scanned by Foto Francisco, Cantanhede.

This picture. I don't know why, but I like it. I have a thing for neon signs, so maybe that's why. Fujicolor C200.

I was due to make an essay which included this shot but never got round to it

I love that dance shot Irv.

My favourite is this one of my wife, we were on a weekend away in Berlin and had a great time. It's a really happy memory.

O2Pilot, what an excellent idea for a thread. :)

Here's a shot from a recent hike that I like. Shot w/ Canon F-1, Canon 50mm f/1.4 w/ yellow filter on Ilford HP5+ @ EI 1600, dev. in Rodinal.

A thick sea-mist had rolled in one day back in early October (I think), which is always good for atmospheric shots providing you can find something worth shooting.
Looking down from the pier I noticed this couple photographing along the water line, giving me my focal point. I wasn't sure about it at first, but after living with it for a few months I quite like all that "negative space".
Everything else I took that day was a complete dud...

Olympus OM4. Fomapan 400.

This is a field I like to walk in when I am working in Hampshire. I love looking at the way it all changes, but I don't tend to share the pictures.

This is also the year I decided I like photography more when it's simple. I might see how basic a camera I can use next year. No messing about with different lenses, or collecting kit.

Woolacombe beach. Baby Rollei. Rerapan. I posted some others from this film but didn't like this one at the time. Guess it's grown on me.

This was shot at the same time as the one I used for the Post Card Exchange so I didn't want to spoil the surprise of the the Post Card.  I shot this with a Leica IIIc using a Summitar 5cm f/2 lens.  The film is Ilford Pan-F 50+ developed in beer.

This was almost my postcard but I felt it didn't reflect 'me' enough so it was parked.

This was previously unseen in 2017 because it wasn't developed until December!  ;D
