    summer

    I don’t know why I like this but I do. Pictures with nothing happening, the art form. Also, this looks pretty much like the view through the Rolleiflex view finder, which I still find slightly magic in its ability to make things look just pleasant, somehow. Gotta get film grain lasered into my contact lenses.…

    birds (of various ages)

    Because I think it’s actually against the law to visit the coast and not come back with pictures of seagulls. Shot with a 1932 Rolleiflex “Old Standard” which is very difficult to shoot downwards with without going over board. On Agfa RSX 50, expired sometime in the 90s, cross-processed in C41 (which works extremely well…

    Double exposure

    Wanted to do standard thirst trap mirror selfies (as one does), got accidental double exposure which rocks more than the rest. I’ll take it. ~1935 Zeiss Ikon Box Tengor 54/2, Ilford Delta 400, scanned negative Also using a super cheap RGB LED light whose definition of “white” extends pretty far into the UV spectrum, I…

    Okay, that was actually a small icebreaker called Swanti but it’s not my fault they named the ship wrong! Ihagee Exa, Hanimex 2x teleconverter, Pancolar 2/50mm, Delta 400, scanned negative

    This one on Delta 400, still with the technically really bad but artistically really good Hanimex teleconverter from the last couple posts.

    Kreidefelsen Krokodil

    So this has weird colors because it was overexposed. I think. Usually my method is sunny 16, and then I add or subtract random amounts of time or aperture based on the current moon phase and my general feeling. It’s not very scientific. Sometimes I also look at my light meter app and then don’t…

    – Albrecht Dürer, 1502

    This wild hare wasn’t very wild at all, and so extraordinary friendly and patient that even I managed to take a picture of it. And videos. Because the first rule of city kids club is to sort of freak out (quietly) once any kind of animal gets close. It stayed behind our tent for most…

    evening ice cream

    Shot with an Ihagee Exa, with a Hanimex 2x teleconverter plus a Pancolar 2/50mm, on Konica Centuria 100 film, expired 2001. It can’t be overstated how absolutely optically shit this teleconverter is. In other words: I love it. Also IIRC, this was at 1/25s, hand-held. But who needs sharpness if you got vibes. Or something.…
