Added an info page for my new M3. Also added two new photos taken with it.

So I have the temporary use of a nice old Leica M3. Today I vowed that when I woke up, that I was going to go out and shoot a roll with it. I also vowed that I was going to take one of my Canonet QL17s with me and compare it shot-by-shot against the Leica’s Summilux & Summaron lenses. Seems like a lopsided battle for the $40 Ql17, but it is one I must make if I ever want to commit to buying an expensive 35mm rangerfinder kit.

The film is in the devloper as I type, so expect my results in a few days when I can get around to printing some of the identical frames, and viewing them side by side. Its going to be an apocalypyic battle. (or not.)

This weekend I set up my darkroom in the basement of the place that I moved into in Septemer. I spent the past few hours cranking out random 5×7 prints from my archive of 35mm shooting. Seeing these images on paper, some of which are four years old, is like cracking open a fine bottle of aged Imperial Stout (Or wine if that is your fancy). Time does wonders with photography.

I’ll probbaly spend days just printing off random stuff from my archive. And in the end, a lot of people will have hand made christmas presents from me.
