My name is Pedro Vasconcelos and I am an amateur photographer using Contax G equipment. I live in Matosinhos, Portugal (near Porto) and I mainly photograph b&w and develop & print my own photos; I occasionally did some slide films.

Notre Dame		This view from Paris was taken from of the towers of the Notre-Dame cathedral in the September 1999. Camera was a G2, lens 28mm, film was Ilford Delta 100. The sky was hazy and the sun was just outside the picture frame; to ensure bright contrast between the tower cross and the white sky that part of the image was burned-in during printing with a grade 5 filter; the bottom part was printed in grade 2 (in Multigrade V fiber). Printing was full-frame with a black border to `close' the rather high-key sky.
Bolhao		This scene was taken on the local market of Bolhao in Porto Portugal (near the city I live in). Camera was a G2, lens 45mm, film was Ilford Delta 400. During printing the bottom was burned-in slightly; image was printed full-frame (I tend to compose my images to use the full 24x36).
Louvre 1		A view of the Louvre from the interior of the pyramid, also from Sept. 1999. Camera was the G2, lens 28mm, film Kodak Elite Chrome 100.
Louvre 2		The Louvre from the outside. It was a rather hot day so many younger visitors were refreshing themselves on the water fountains. Camera was G2, lens 90mm, film Elite Chrome 100.
