they don’t bite

If you’ve ever lived through the joy of having to scan a roll of 35mm film on a flatbed scanner every single day you can probably relate to how wonderfully free I feel now. I can now shoot film without that hassle! All it takes is to feed a roll into my Pakon, wait 3-5 minutes, export them from the software and I’m done! I still need to do some dust-spotting and minor level adjustments if I didn’t expose properly, but all in all the effort that goes into scanning has reduced a lot!

Today was the first day that I went out of the house properly after struggling with quite a nasty flu. I’m still coughing a lot, but I felt ok enough to be running errands, and especially annoying ones at that. I’m sure one of these days I might even feel well enough to take a camera with me too! I’m not in a hurry though, because I still have 25+ rolls of film to develop, preferably before we travel to Argentina.

All pictures taken with: Leica M6 + Zeiss ZM C-Biogon 35mm f/2.8.

I’m not sure french fries are appropriate food for the sheep!
