    Three garages   Walking my neighbourhood in the Dandenong Ranges during Covid-19 lockdown, I discovered quite a number of old garages that have remained unrenovated for many decades. This is a small sample of those I captured, using Ilford HP5 35mm film in my Pentax MX camera.
    Three letter boxes   These are some of the more interesting mailboxes I photographed while walking in my neighbourhood in the Dandenong Ranges during Covid-19 lockdown. All were taken on Ilford HP5 35mm film with my Pentax MX camera.

    Same sex rallies 1  
I  attended the same sex rallies in Melbourne. It was good to see a lot of young people at the rallies . Its their future. These photos are a reminder that there has been a struggle for gay marriage.

    Local Tree with 135mm Wide Angle Box Camera  
A second simple 8×10 Wide-angle box camera was developed as a COVID Exercise.  In contrast with the first camera, a wide angle lens with limited coverage was used.  The image circle can be readily seen.
 
With fixed focal length and 135mm Staeble Process Lens stopped down to f64, the image was formed on a sheet of 8×10 Agfa Brovira Grade 3 paper.  Exposure was 30 seconds with late afternoon filtered sun. and taken from approximately the same location as the first image.
The paper negative was subsequently scanned on an Epson V700 flatbed scanner and converted to a positive image in Photoshop.
Only minor blemishes were removed.
