Totally OT equipment and negative film too -
trying out my Rollei 3003, bought recently to
replace an SL2000F that finally gave up the
ghost (IMO - the most innovative 35mm camera
ever made - the only thing missing is a digital
back) with a Voigtländer Color-Skoparex 4/21mm
(poosibly the most compact 21mm along with its
twin the Rolleinar 4/21) on dreary, wet and
windy days in Hannover and Lüneburg.
The film was cheap Fuji consumer negative stuff
that was well over its sell-by date (or are Fuji colours always a bit strange?)

Please don't mention verticals - hardly anything
is vertical in Lüneburg, it has something to do
with subsidence from the old salt mines.

Good Mornin' Douglas!
Overall, a nice series.
However, on my monitor it appears that the
contrast is a wee bit high, in all of them. I
suspect this is a consequence of over-ripened
(out of date) film. There also seems to be a
fair bit of grain ... particularly in the last
one ... imm030_31A. This, too, may be because of
the beyond date film. I just didn't expect that
much grain from any 6x6 negative.
As for the shots, an interesting series ... and I
LOVE the spires on the old town hall, in
Hannover's Atstadt. Great architecture!
Thanks for sharing images of places that we otherwise might never see. :-)
