This is a 4×5 I shot of the Louisiana State Capital building. The film is Efke 25, the developer was a Pyro I mixed up from a Photographer’s Formulary kit (www.photographersformulary.com). Likely not my best composition, the tilt is a bit goofy, but I love the sky you can produce using Pyro developer. Camera was a Sinar F with a Schneider 135 lens.

A summertime lightning storm from the former tropical depression “Bonnie” had me up at 5 AM working on old photos. This is a scan from Paris in 2007, shot with a Rollei 6003SRC and a 80mm Zeiss lens on Fuji Acros 100 (film).

Below is a shot from a tower in Ghent, Belgium. I like the contrast between the old town from the middle ages and, off in the background, a modern office building.

We visited Holland in late May, taking the opportunity to visit some friends we had not seen since living there in the late 90’s. Alex enjoyed the entire trip, from the long flights to the bicycles, pancakes, windmills, clogs, milk, and cheese. Amsterdam in the springtime is truly a neat place to visit.
Jennifer and Alex at Zaanse Schans
The black and white pictures were shot with my Rollei 6001, which has a nice Zeiss lens that is great for portraits. I used Ilford Delta 400 for all of the shots and developed in ID-11. It was fun to shoot some 120 film for a change. The color shots were with a Canon 20D and various lenses. I especially like the shot of Jennifer and Alex at Zaanse Schans (above) and the color shots of Alex playing around the bridges and near the Rijksmuseum.
I posted about 40 of the service letters that FIAT published between 1980 and
1982. This is the beginning of the service letter section of my website; I have
many more but they are being organized this week and next.

I also changed the main (FIAT) page itself so that subordinate items (wiring
diagrams, carb guides, etc.) are on their own pages linked via the main page.
Welcome to artigue.com. This site has been operational since around 1997 yet the format has recently changed to a blog. I am working to get all of the old content loaded back in.
The FIAT page is now operating with working documents - click here.
Enjoy your visit!
