Beneath the trees - a photo on Flickriver

Beneath the trees

            I am not precisely sure when this was taken, sometime around October or November 2021, I think.

Similarly, I am not precisely sure how I get on with this camera, a Rollei 35 S, or whether it needs a little work on its lens. Some shots seem pin sharp, others out to an extent that I find a little hard to credit, even given my occasionally uneven technical skills and handling. 

But back to whether I like the camera: it has been helped me produce some of my favourite images since I picked it up for a song a couple of years ago; conversely, it seems utterly unforgiving - a trait I often like - and for all my carrying it about with me, my expectations of myself in using it and uncertainty make me less ... eager to take a shot. Which is, admittedly, a good way of saving film ...

And so, a crop from a 6x4ish image, Blenheim Park, Oxon. Rollei 35 S, Kodak Tri-X @ 400, in ID-11, suffering a little from over-vigorous squeegee work.
