My favourite past time when I'm not shooting LF
Chamonix 8x10 HP5+ Kowa Graphic 360mm wide open at f9 1/30......I love the way this lens makes the subject pop wide open. Developed in D76 for 7 minutes

Neil: That bike looks race ready! What kind of riding do you do when not out photographing or in the darkroom?

I just ride for fun. Try to get out 2 to 3 times a week averaging 60 to 80 klicks at a time.

Fascinating, if a bit unnerving, that the bicycle is apparently balanced without support. I presume there is a block under the hidden far pedal, but the illusion is good.

Nice bike, now where was it you said you lived

Sweeeet bike. I've had about 45 bikes in last 35+ years of riding. I regret selling each one when I do. My biggest regret was an 80's Somec. I've kept a pre 80's Gios Torino with the GT cutout on BB and SR/NR parts, pantogram part.

These days I do ultra-distance mostly with an 80's steel bike and DT shifters. People be like huh? You don't need Di2 on 200mile+ rides. You just need something that you can fix in middle of night when fingers are cold and it's dark.

My goto bike right now is a Moots, sort of half custom. Moots aren't off the shelf, you can't just buy one, you need to order one and there's about 1/2 a dozen people weld it together.

Safe rides! Today, i'm taking a rest day so maybe I do the same with my bike. (take a pic)

I just bought my wife a Huffy one-speed for her birthday, the type I learned to ride as a child. Speaking of balance, my brother's HS classmate could sit balanced on a stationary bike all day. I would have lasted about two seconds. Great shot, Neil!
