    we didn’t have birds for a while

    With a 1930s Kochmann Reflex-Korelle and a very very heavy 24 cm Schneider-Kreuznach Tele-Xenar. Which really belongs on a tripod, so of course this is hand-held. Two hands. #kochmannreflexkorelle #reflexkorelle

    dear diary, apparently it’s autumn now

    Kitsch as payback for the passing of time. All with a 1999 Sony Mavica FD88, which saves images (3 or 4 of them usually) on 1.44 MB floppy disks – a frankly terrible choice for a digital camera. So obviously I’m a huge fan. Everything straight from the camera, just cropped to square format in…

    almost

    fountain pen & ink & water Much more frustrating than producing things I hate completely (lots of those!) is making things I almost like. Like these. “oh wow this turned out completely shit” – fun, part of the process, who cares, try next thing “this is wrong but not completely” – fucking stupid, kill me…

    home (circa 1170)

    With a Kochmann Reflex-Korelle of similar qualities (very outdated design that needs constant maintenance but in some ways an improvement over the future). With an adapted 30 mm f3.5 Zodiak-8 lens. On Foma Ortho 400. #reflexkorelle #kochmannreflexkorelle #zodiak8 #fomafilm #fomabohemia #fomaortho400

    I’ve already posted the iphone version of this, which was maybe better (certainly sharper) but I have a thing for Rolleiflex mirror selfies and this is one. So it would be dishonest to myself not to post this. Also this isn’t a portfolio, this is a diary. Also these are a lot of justifications, maybe…

    In Prague, with the poor man’s Leica, a Zeiss Ikon Contax IIIa. Also I think the first two with a Tiffen Red 25 filter because that makes it all look like I know what I’m doing. Also cropped a lot, because the law is that as soon as you only take a 50 mm lens…

    I have another picture of this where the house looks straight but the tree doesn’t. I don’t quite understand how reality works. With a late 30s Certo Super Dollina, on Foma 100

    methodical is probably too big of a word but it’s not quite as chaotic as it looks. though part of the exercise was testing the late 30s Certo Super Dollina that I bought because it was cheap. Not buying it would have been even cheaper (we already have 1930s 35 mm folding rangefinder at home)…
