After trolling around Flickr I discovered Efke and with that Rodinal developer and stand developing. The following images here I shot with Efke and processed in Rodinal 1:100 dilution and stand developed for 1 hour. My first go around with Rodinal and stand developing was less than optimal.See this <a title=\"Efke 25 Old School Film Part 2\" href=\"https:\/\/dezel.net\/?p=656\">post<\/a>. I am pretty happy with my results this time around.<\/p>\n<p>While in Montana I ran into another photographer who said he would shoot large format. Now those cameras will produce amazing negatives.<\/p>\n<p>Well I when I purchased my Leica I knew that I wanted a camera that was light and mobile.So I have a camera with amazing glass and can produce beautiful images. I just wanted to shoot atypical photographs with my Leica that being landscapes.<\/p>\n<p>I was fortunate enough to grab some time and roll around the area close to where we were staying in Manhattan, MT. I hope you enjoy my photos.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_842\" class=\"thumbnail wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"width: 236px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dezel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/efke011.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-842 \" title=\"Post and Sky \" src=\"https:\/\/dezel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/efke011-283x283.jpg\" alt=\"Post and Sky 13\" width=\"226\" height=\"226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dezel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/efke011-283x283.jpg 283w, https:\/\/dezel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/efke011-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dezel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/efke011-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 226px) 100vw, 226px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"caption wp-caption-text\">Post and Sky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_843\" class=\"thumbnail wp-caption alignright\" style=\"width: 236px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dezel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/efke019.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-843 \" title=\"Montana Tree and Sky \" src=\"https:\/\/dezel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/efke019-283x283.jpg\" alt=\"Montana Tree and Sky 19\" width=\"226\" height=\"226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dezel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/efke019-283x283.jpg 283w, https:\/\/dezel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/efke019-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dezel.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/efke019-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 226px) 100vw, 226px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"caption wp-caption-text\">Montana Tree and Sky 19<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pushing the Limits of 35mm These images are from Montana where most of my family gathered for the Christmas holiday.
