Derelict hospital that has been on my "to do " list for a long time and I feared I'd never get to see ... worth the visit, going up
the fire escape (in view of homes across the road and all vehicles using said, quite busy road), some contortion to get in
from top of the fire escape without plunging to some harm on the concrete below and having to dodge being seen by
the workmen working on the housing being built on the grounds , just to see the domed area ... just beautiful

We went to the coast on sunday and I didn't feel like carrying anything much, so the MX-1 came along again :) (carrying it in a lens switch case on my belt)

Some tricky conditions as the clouds moved in and out so fast (as did the light)... Even trickier was the trail - one part was simply a mud pit for half a mile or mile... Guess that's the rain forest, but we didn't expect that after one of the hottest & driest summers in Oregon :)

hehe, thanks Luke :tongue:
Oregon has indeed loads of magical places to visit. Enough to share with everyone. :)
On busy weekend days you can be stuck in a traffic jam all the way to the coast if you're unlucky, but on the whole it's probably one of the less crowded states :)
 
Not that anyone here is still interested in this camera, but I just realized that Phase One has fixed a big bug that crippled their Pentax MX-1 support.
Previously lens corrections (CA, purple fringing, distortion, etc.) weren't available on MX-1 files. I reported that bug end of 2014 and now with Capture One 8.2 this is fixed. Yay! :)

Looks like I can go back to shooting raw with this camera from now on. (y)
 
OK, so this camera is new to me, so resurrecting! :)

Please enjoy. Processed the SOOC JPG. Started with the Reversal Film preset as a base. Monochromes are processed in post

1 - Nik Silver Efex - More Silver preset.

Shot in RAW, but then processed in the camera after the fact. I think I can shoot JPG, especially the reversal film preset. I like the colors it produces.

I love the detail on your daughter's eyes... And that perspective on the Seattle Police Headquarters... You're making me look forward to going home in six months... :)
