    The downside of the new old car is that i’m currently spending most of my free time with fixing all the little things that are broken instead of with photographing trees. But the upside is that it basically works and one can use it to drive to trees that are much further away. Or stork…

    They are all pretty good but this is objectively the best statue on Schlossbrücke. Camera: Ihagee Exakta Varex IIa, with Sonnar 135/f4 #berlinonfilm #ihageeexakta

    The nice thing about taking the Rolleiflex to the bar is that one has something to do while waiting for the tram on the way back. These are admittedly the only decent ones out of 12 but they’re surprisingly sharp for 1s exposure time after *many* beers, hand-held. Well hand-held-against-a-wall but still. Camera: beloved 1932…

    Statues – for when you’d rather photograph people but also don’t want to ask. On the plus side, I’m prepared if I ever meet someone made out of bronze. Unfortunately I don’t know who made these or what their name is. They seemed rather quiet in any case. Camera: 1932 Rolleiflex “Old Standard”, on Foma…

    Still with the Ihagee Exakta Varex IIa, which has proven to be unusually reliable for an Exakta. Well, the frame counter is broken of course but other than that everything works. #ihageeexakta #fomapan200 #fomafilm

    faster than its shadow

    So the trick is to wait until the bird is exactly on top of its own reflection in the window and only then press the shutter. Totally intentional. Absolutely not just random chance, it’s all skillz. Camera: Ihagee Exakta Varex IIa, with a 135mm/f4 Carl Zeiss Sonnar. On Foma 200. #grainisgood #ihageeexakta #fomafilm #fomapan200

    Initially after seeing this tree I wanted to go back with a 9×12 and a tripod, to do it justice. But then everything was a bit too gray to find the motivation to go up there again. So this is in 35 mm, and you kinda have to imagine it’s in focus properly. The colors…

    Turns out, it all looks cooler when you’re getting closer. Watched some youtube vid with tips for bird photography some days ago, and modern cameras apparently have autofocus tracking for bird eyes?? Kids these days have it too easy. These on the other hand were shot with a manual focus 135mm/f4 Sonnar on a fully…
