on the hunt Film really doesn’t make me any more patient normally. These days I actually often develop and scan my film on the same day, because I have found a rather immediate workflow with the Pakon. In ...
flowers As I already planned I took out my Rollei today and shot a roll in the park. I felt like I needed some peace and quiet and a bit of nature which is sorely lacking ...
divided attention It seems like we’re getting the first feel of summer now and we used the opportunity to go to the park today. On the way I tried my hand at some more instax pictures and ...
skip These days I’m shooting fairly much because I don’t leave the house without a camera. It’s getting more summery around here now and so street photography is a little easier than in the winter. My ...
careful with the knife I’ve been waiting for the C41 chemicals to be delivered so that I can finally see some of my pictures from our trip to Buenos Aires, but sadly they’re still backordered. It will probably still ...
eager This city is all about timing. Not only the season is essential for good street pictures, but also the time of day. Sometimes you really need to walk a lot to see something interesting and ...
say no to austerity Sometimes good photographic practice isn’t about going outside and shooting. Sometimes it’s taking care of your archive. Today I got a new folder for my negatives in the mail along with another pack of negative ...
clockwork orange There are still a bunch of rolls I haven’t even considered developing yet and these are the E6 rolls that I shot at the beginning of the year. I was actually planning to shoot some ...
about forks and spoons I didn’t quite manage to finish the roll I started today, but I’m trying to carry on my habit of shooting (almost) daily. Although this place doesn’t offer as much as Buenos Aires, it’s not ...
zombie pooh I’m still somewhat jet-lagged, but I’m slowly getting accustomed to being back home. I even shot a couple of rolls of Double-X yesterday and developed them in the evening. Shooting street here is so different! ...
transit This last month was such a wonderful adventure! I’ve finally been to another continent, I have seen the moon from the southern hemisphere and danced tango in Buenos Aires of all places! Could it get ...
bistro Yesterday in the evening/afternoon (depending on time-zone) we finally arrived after one hell of an annoying journey. After a mess with our seat reservations and luggage due to the incompetence of Iberia we were already ...
hugs and kisses Today was the last full day here in this wonderful city and I actually managed to finish off the last 3 rolls of film, because we went to see the ocean that isn’t an ocean. ...
water After a walk in Palermo and getting a wonderful book of Annemarie Heinrich’s work yesterday, we decided to go to the enchanting little bar in Barracas again to dance a few tangos and listen to ...
danger I wouldn’t have believed it possible considering that I still don’t read that much in Spanish, but I just love the bookshops around here! I can spend a long while browsing through them and it’s ...
bunny alarm I find public transport in this city highly confusing. The grid outline of the city doesn’t help and none of the stops are announced. You have to know pretty exactly where you’re going to tell ...
hairfree coffee Did I mention that I like it here? Somehow around here things fall into place just like that, effortlessly. To give you an example: Today we went to the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes and ...
sorry After running all over town for the last couple of weeks we decided to take it easy yesterday and stayed in the neighbourhood. This doesn’t mean that we didn’t do anything though. There are elections ...
pure gold When I travel I like to go places and see things because I’m interested in a whole variety of things, but I don’t necessarily like to experience a place in a touristy fashion. It wouldn’t ...
smiling costs very little In the list of things that aren’t what they seem to be we added one more item today: After the “tree” that is a bush, the “ocean” that is a river and the “rabbit” that ...
