Hi all,
just post the favourite photo(s) you took with your TLR.
Here is mine, taken with my trusty Rolleiflex T.
A Japanese tourists group on the Champs-Elysées in Paris. They didn't post at all! The girl on the left was looking at me while I was focusing, with a "you won't take a photo will you?" look, and they all burst into laughers when they heard the little "click".
It wouldn't have been possible with another type of camera...
(there might have been a sligth light leak on the top left, or is it because te photo wasn't developped properly?)

Browsing through my stuff from the 90s or so, I came across a couple... pretty sure they were taken with my 124G I used to have.

sorry for using such huge pics, donno how to get Flickr´s "just post into your HTML page" linked Pics to work...
 
Wow, some great pics above. Ian - love that pipe! Now, if he had been sitting astride the pipe, ...! Thafred - don't apologise, the size is perfect, and the images are excellent. I love that shadow, and the colour shot is excellent - very well planned and executed. .
 
Ian and Thafred, wonderful images!

An image I shot at Beltring War&Peace show 2007, my skills and the Ciroflex lens quality pale in comparison to your wonderful photos ;)

It's not the best I've ever taken, but the slightly fuzzy quality does give it a ww2-period feel.

This one was from my second roll on my Rolleiflex 3.5 planar.

Maybe not my favorite, but I like the tones in this one: TriX at 250, Rolleiflex T.

Frequently I will crop to a rectangle, depending on the subject.
