Subject: [Leica] Macro photography, 5x4 style.

Yesterday, I had the day off work and felt the need to do some film 
photography.  The choice was between the M6TTL and Shen Hao.  Today, the 
Shen-Hao won...
These are some red roses I bought for Karin...

Technically, both are macro shots as they are both greater than 1/3 
lifesize.

90mm Grandagon, red filter, HP5 plus EI200, Perceptol 1+2, 12 min 24 deg C.

150mm APO Sironar N, red filter, HP5 plus EI200, Perceptol 1+2, 12 min 
24 deg

Two hours went by very quickly...and I took four sheets of film.

The resulting A3 prints are very pleasing (well I think so...)


C&C welcome.
