the ultimate cinematic experience Sometimes the most random things happen – like going to the beach and stumbling into an open air milonga on the promenade. I was rather happy that I still had some shots left on my ...
vertigo Rain might keep me from shooting, but drizzle isn’t so bad. So, today I managed to finish the two rolls of 120 I had planned for yesterday – a roll of Rollei CR200 and a ...
donkeys at the river Today I was planning to take out my Rollei and shoot some colour. I still have 2 rolls of slide film in 120 and I’m eager to finish it so that I can finally get ...
balloon As you might remember my first attempt at developing T-Max 400 went horribly wrong and the negatives were very thin and fogged in such a silly way that they were very hard to save. Today ...
under the ombú Sometimes things don’t quite go as planned. Originally I hoped to finish with the pictures of our longest trip this year already in May, but first my supplier didn’t deliver the chemicals for ages, then the ...
thirtythree The other day I already showed you another series from my home town. Like many East German towns it suffered a lot when the reunification came and maybe even a little more than others because ...
jugglers Since I’m still struggling with my cold I used the opportunity to edit a colour roll developed with the Jobo CPE-2. The hand-developed rolls that were processed with the Fuji chemicals so far often needed ...
off I have somehow managed to catch a cold in this weather and this of course means that I’m having chicken soup and drinking ginger tea. Not exactly how I thought I’d spend one of those ...
under the tree In an effort not to get emotionally attached to my pictures I try to forget what I photographed. Often that works quite well. I take so many pictures that only very few stick in my ...
upset When I considered testing all sorts of different film stocks I was kind of bored with Kentmere 400. It is by far the film stock that I shot the most mainly because it is cheap and ...
play time When I ordered some cine film from my usual source – Nik and Trick in the UK -, Richard was so kind to throw in a roll of Fuji Eterna 250D for me to test. ...
the tricks of the pros I must say that I’m not a huge fan of this Kodak Farbwelt 400 stuff. The shadows tend to get very blue/magenta when running it through the Pakon and I don’t feel like colour correcting ...
abyss As I promised, today I show you a roll from my Rolleicord, taken sometime in May. I’ve been shooting the Rollei quite a bit, but since it’s all in colour there is nothing to show ...
delicious fingers Since yesterday I have developed 2 batches of film with the help of my new Jobo CPE-2. The first batch had pretty much sky in every picture and they turned out perfectly. I think I ...
tones Although I mostly shoot street I occasionally dabble in other genres. These shots taken in Barcelona are examples of such endeavours. If you ask me, Barcelona is a great city, not only to see pretty ...
fast After another couple of rolls in my new Jobo tank I’m starting to get the hang of the spools. The first two rolls still involved a bit of swearing, but this time I did much ...
good boy I almost didn’t take any of the shots I’m posting today, because I wasn’t planning on taking a camera to the Nick Cave concert. I only changed my mind last minute and if you’ve seen the concert pictures you ...
tourists looking up Having shot already 4 rolls of my batch of HP5+ I wanted to make sure that I don’t run out of black and white film and decided on the next emulsion to try. After testing ...
of red carpets and alien temples The first development tank I ever bought was a Jobo 1520. I wanted quality that would last, so I invested. The only problem was that it actually broke after only a few rolls! Somehow the lid ...
inspired by Seidenstücker It’s easy to send me down rabbit holes when I’m thinking about projects. Since getting Kodak Vision3 500T in 120 is pretty much impossible and there don’t seem to be any 120 tungsten films at ...
