London and England with a Rolleiflex

Hello all,

I just came back from a trip in England and London with my Rolleiflex and wished to share some of the stuff I got. I did have a problem processing my negatives but well. It's not too visible on those pictures.












Using a slow film (PanF) or being in any case able to shoot wide open really does justice to the lens, with the unmatchable effect of the Tessar.

Great project. Sorry about your processing (the dust can easily be fixed). I especially like No. 4.

I did a week in East Anglia with my Rollei, and in spite of the rain, had a wonderful time! Still printing, so I hope to post a few soon. The Rollei is a great travel companion. I liked you picture of the young ladies on the train platform.

The day they were made, at least three people asked me whether it was medium format, or referred to the fact it was... there's a hope! One of them was a London-based photographer with a Hasselblad tshirt (yes!) who had just ended an exhibition at St Martin in the Fields :
