    sculptures

    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…

    house

    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

    test shots

    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)…

    sabotage (first take)

    Yeah the first one looks weird but it’s a picture I made, it’s the right way up, I have the negative to prove it. It’s a fisheye lens obviously and I thought well maybe it can be used for something that doesn’t look like a skateboard video or a beastie boys album cover. I don’t…

    sun and leaves

    I have about 30 million pictures of the sun breaking through the tree tops and they never turn out screaming “summer is here” as much as this does in real life. I will try again next summer. This one with a 1930s Kochmann Reflex-Korelle, with a (1980s) 30 mm f3.5 Zodiak-8 lens adapted to it.…

    kritzel kritzel

    Pen and ink wash. This is so amazingly easy to fuck up. I’ve been doing the wash first, which is generally not how you do it [TM] but my ink isn’t waterproof and it doesn’t really make a difference. I have also destroyed many many other pictures in the pen stage so with this one…

  • my castle is my castle

    my castle is my castle

    Second one is an accidental double exposure but it has better over-all exposure so uhm just ignore the second castle in the middle? Or don’t, I’m not the cops. In my defense, it was dark. At night. I know, chance in a million. And my Rolleiflex doesn’t have double-exposure prevention. Which is cool unless you’ve…

    cow

    doing cow things. Cows are much easier to photograph than humans and pigeons. Petition to replace some humans and pigeons in Berlin with cows. With a Rolleiflex “Old Standard” (me, not the cow), on Rollei Ortho 25 film
