Down by the Riverside (Film) - a photo on Flickriver

            Camera: Rolleiflex 3.5B TLR Zenar 75mm f3.5 1954
Film: Ilford SFX 200 Black and White 120 
Scanned by Walkens House of Film, Melbourne, Australia

The Rolleiflex TLR camera is exceptionally good for close shots, but I wanted to see how it would handle a landscape. An immediate issue in composition is the 6x6 square format. As you can see here there is a lot of negative space (though I would argue those clouds are an important element in the picture). Whereas I would definitely need an orange filter to bring out the definition in the clouds with 35mm, the medium format film handles this situation without difficulty. If you enlarge this photograph you'll even see a duck swimming in the North Esk River.
