All photos were made
using my "new" Argus C4 with an f 2.8 Cintar Lens
(50mm). The film used was Fujifilm 200 ISO. Thanks
to many of you in the group I knew I could approximate a shutter speed
of 1/200 sec. by placing the dial between 100 and 300, enabling me to
use "Sunny 16" to calculate a decent exposure for each shot Central New Jersey really got socked by the post-Christmas Blizzard (over 30 inches of Snow in many areas) and I figured I wanted to focus in on the storm as subject matter. Snowy beaches and boardwalks are lonely places. Even at Asbury Park (where Bruce Springsteen first made a name for himself, it's was totally deserted on the next to last day of the year. Pictures in this "Holiday Greetings From Asbury Park" theme are of the snow covered boardwalk and the Asbury Park Convention Hall, local nightspot the "Wonder Bar" featuring the maniacly grinning "Tilly" face, and finally a self portrait taken at arm's length of myself because there were no pretty women or cute kids anywhere to be found as subject matter. I look much older in this shot due to the sharpness of the lens coupled with being worn out after three days of non-stop snow shoveling. |

1) "Hearth" is a shot of Christmas stockings hung by the chimney
waiting for St. Nick, and was shot with a tripod-mounted Argus 75

flashbulb on Kodak Portra VC 100 iso 120 film re-rolled on 620 film
spools. 2) "Snow Day" is a photo of my daughter enjoying the first snowfall and was shot with a 1954 Argus 40 at 1/100th sec f/8 on Kodak 100 Tmax 120 film re-rolled on 620 film spools. 3)"Hark" is a shot of our Christmas tree topper and was shot with a 1959 Argus C-33 at 1/125 sec f/11 with camera on "x" flashbulb setting and using electronic flash on Drugstore brand 200 iso 35mm film. |

 Dancing Lights |
Dancing Lights is one
of a half-dozen or so light displays strung across Massachusetts Avenue
in the lively Central Square neighborhood in Cambridge, MA. I took the
shot with the travellin' C4 during the three weeks or so that it was in
my possession. I used a tripod, and had to pick an angle that avoided
shooting directly into street lights. I used the "B" setting. I took
two shots: one exposed for "a while" and the other exposed for "a while
longer." The aperture was closed at least half way: since my timing was
so arbitrary, I wanted to give myself a real difference in exposure
while avoiding a totally blasted out frame. This is pretty much a
straight scan, cropped. |

| These are both just houses around town
that A. had lights I liked, and B. still had them lit 10 days after
Christmas when I finally got around to shooting them. ;) Both photos were taken with a C-44 and 100 speed Fuji print film. f1.9 at 1/10 of a second. No tripod, but I used trees for bracing. | |

| Christmas for me is going to my in-laws farm! I got my Argus C44 as a Christmas Present from my wife. The first picture is the truck that my Father-in-law and I ride around in to look at the fields. The second is of my first born son. This is his first Christmas! | |
