Howdy folks,

I shot these with a Canon 7E with Composer Pro, double glass and Super Wide attachment. Film is Ilford XP2 400. I love hot rods and this monthly get together just 2 miles from my house is one of the best in the area.

Great set Peter--love the extra blur you get with the super-wide and full-frame. How do you like the XP2? These look great. I've had mixed resuts (a couple of 120 rolls through a holga). Pretty sure it was my processing lab though. I get the feeling they're not real good about refreshing their chemicals. One roll was beautiful and the next...really grungy. I may have to give it a try again with 35mm and the LB (and a new lab...).

Take care--

Nice shots! The film grain compliments the classic car styling and I especially like the composition in #1.

Thank you! I just had these developed at the CVS drugstore and they seem to do a fine job with XP2. I scanned the negatives myself and that makes a big difference though.

Those are so great. I can't say that I have used the Super Wide since getting a full frame camera two years ago (hanging head in shame). Seeing these motivates me to get it back out!

Peter,

I am with Craig on his comments. This set is great, and your choice of B&W is superb with the superwide combined with fullframe.
