The Poynton Pond does seem to be deforesting its banks as it undermines the tree roots. A number of them have just given up and fallen into the water, where they provide good refuge for the water fowl.

Bedside Reading - and Tonal Range

General reflected light reading (Gossen Sixtomat) agreed with the Bronica EA II prism finder, so it was followed. Up-close readings suggested (roughly) that the pillows were going to be 1 stop under exposed and the lamp area 3 stops over exposed, and I guessed that the shadows would just fade-out to black somewhere.
This is the last frame of my Bronica ETRS Project test film 2, shot mainly to check the 'spare' ETR style film back. Before winding on the film back was removed (with its dark slide) and waved around in the light to check for light leaks; none in evidence, so now there is much rejoicing, the whole kit works well!

Pink splashes amongst the greenery. Caen, Normandy, France in July 2014. I usually avoid high contrast like this but it seems to fit the scene and certainly reflects the very brief period of intense sunlight on the day concerned.
