Hi Nathan,
both systems are used to excellent effect and the pictures are 
invariably at your usual high standard.
Some of the 6X9 shots really stand out - the picture of your father in 
law, the sunset (I just love the sinuous curve in the water caused by 
the waves and the sun's reflection) and 'decay'.
As far as 'decay' is concerned, if the top quarter to one third was 
burned in to get some more tonality into the waves, it would make a 
really nice print.

Now you've got me thinking...maybe I should dig out my Yashica TLR and a 
roll of out of date Acros 100 and see what I can do...
