Thank you very much Louis for the kind comment. I did not expect to take
the picture of the pregnant mare. I had the 3.5 F mounted on the tripod
very early in the morning, I was waiting for the sun to rise through the
trees and the faint fog to take a backlight when I felt a presence near my
back; I turned my head and saw two horses, they were so close to me that I
could touch them with my hand; They are not afraid of the camera because
they are used to seeing me with cameras, it seemed like they wanted to
greet me in some way, sometimes I ride them. I decided to change the
subject, the Rolleiflex was ready to shoot and I turned it towards the
pregnant mare due to better light, it was still quite dark and I was not
sure of the best focus point but I only had one shot and I took the photo
quickly, the mare could move at any moment; in this way I photographed this
unexpected subject at f 8 and 1/8 sec, camera on tripod

Last weekend I was at the farm for a little over 24 hours. I almost
loaded a roll of film onto the Rolleiflex 3.5F Planar, but figured it
wouldn't take 12 frames during that period because I had other things to
do, so I loaded two 6m5x9cm Ilford FP4 film sheets on two film holders and I
attached the back of the Rollei Plate adapter to the 3.5F. The weather
was very good considering that we are in winter, there was a bit of fog
early in the morning; I took the two pictures:
