Well done, Thomas! Very evocative images of an area I knew personally when my parents had a cottage there in the 60s and 70s. Well-reproduced, too, on coated paper. According to his tech notes, Tom used a variety of cameras, including an M4-P with a 50 Summicron, 90 Tele-Elmarit, and 28 Rokkor. The film was mostly Velvia, so the color is rich. I heartily commend this work to you all. Got mine from Amazon.com Stan Yoder Pittsburgh Best to you all for the remainder of the century. And beyond.
