Toddler ready to swim in Lake Austin. Old tech.


 Remembering the film days. Out for a Summer swim in Lake Austin. A pier at Emma Long Park. 

Photographed with a Contax G2 camera and a 21mm Contax Biogon lens. On Agfapan B&W film. Scan from a print. 

Ah. Austin 24 years ago... Where are the crowds? Where are the boats?

  2. A great photo. Was this a red filter? The sky seems so dark.

  3. Hi Phil, I don't remember using a red filter on this. In fact, I'm not sure I had a filter that worked on the 21mm. Part of it could be the uncorrected vignetting of the lens and maybe a helping hand in the printing via some dodging. Sorry to not have recorded more details.
