Marx on Verichrome

I live in the oldest city of the Netherlands. Ulpia Noviomagus, Romans all over the place, some supposed Charlemagne and that's it.
But also Henriette Presburg and Hermann Marx were born here, Mother and brother of Karl. Where the house stood it's all bright and clean now, I prefer the higher part, more like it was a century ago.

Blitzbesuch...

...denn die Sonne scheint - nòch.
Aaaalso: RheinbahnStarbucksKarstadtDrosteKaufhofPuppe. Und die Sonne scheint immer noch. Aber bei Heinemann in Oberkassel wartet Rudolf schon im Schaufenster...
Oja: zwischendurch, leider ohne Gelbscheibe, die Svema64 getestet:













E The Svema64 was black. Had lots of other problems (see Flickr). But in the end I had several nice images - better than the Tasma65, so I don't complain.

Cuijk Spectaculair

Nooo - not the picture, the event was called that way. Great weather, super retro scooters but the 1985 TACMA in the 1957 FED did not perform well, alas. Look for the gruesome details on my Flickr photostream.

OCEHb














Only one guest in the pub; long shadows, reflexions in the rain and a wise cat in the sun. Thursday morning in Nijmegen isn't thàt bad after coffee and chocolate-cake. Autumn.

1957 Kiev 2A, orange filter on the old Jupiter (I prefer the "lesser" coated old one).
 All 1/50  ±F4,5

BTW That´s so nice: the Salyut filter-set also fits the Lubitel and the Jupiters.

BATEPKAHT

















Hey - didn't I still have some Tetenal coffee? Over nine weeks old now, but it works fine at 35° and 7,5 mins.

I think the clean touristic Dutch view can't possibly match the Russian waterside, more than a century ago.
