night skating The last few days I was very busy with work and my health wasn’t too cooperative either, so I didn’t spend much time on photography. I was very productive photographically over the summer, so I ...
what can you see Today I was feeling sort of under the weather, but I still decided to go out to shoot some pictures. I just didn’t want the nice weather to go to waste with the impending autumn ...
feed me Today was the official start of autumn and that means that it’s the time of the year when I need to start pushing my film. It gets a little colder and darker, and even a ...
on the outside I rarely take a day off, but occasionally it happens that I neither shoot, nor develop, nor scan, nor edit. These are rare occasions, but they do happen, even if usually not by choice. This ...
taxi Today I spent most of my time editing pictures. Of the last 10 rolls from Argentina I now only have 3 more left to do, 2 of which need colour correction, and so far I’m ...
resting places Almost 5 months after returning from Argentina I have finally finished developing all the 53 rolls I brought back from the trip. It was a difficult undertaking because it was the first time that I had ...
final call It has been roughly a year since I first thought of going all film and since the end of October 2014 I haven’t shot a serious picture with a digital camera. In fact I try ...
coffee Today I wanted to shoot my last roll of Fomapan 400, but clearly it wasn’t meant to be. The leader ripped and the film never forwarded. This time I’m sure I checked that it was ...
little ones The last few months have been exceptionally productive. I’ve shot a lot over the summer while also catching up on my development. Now that the summer is pretty much over I fear that the streets ...
on the beach It’s getting a bit colder now, but yesterday we still used the brilliant weather for a trip to the beach. “Trip”, that sounds way too involved, the beach is actually just down the road from ...
asleep Trying out new developers is always a bit of a scary thing, because you might ruin some perfectly good pictures in the process. Of course I try not to experiment with important rolls, but sometimes ...
up they go Over the course of the summer I have come to follow a certain route through our neighbourhood that takes me past all the good spots for street photography on the way into town. I pass ...
35 What else could follow after a 35°C day other than a thunderstorm and a few days of rain? Well, wet ISO 1600 weather was what we had all day and I didn’t even bother taking ...
on the corner I could well call it a sign that I have just five 35mm negative sleeves left when I have another five rolls of C41 film to develop to reach the capacity of the chemicals. An ...
neck ache It’s been a very hot day, but I walked into town anyway to see whether I could shoot a few rolls. With the Leica I shot a roll of Fomapan 400 and the penultimate roll ...
find the dog Today when I pulled a roll of RPX400 I had just developed in Rodinal out of the tank I was a bit confused. I had developed it for 1 1/2h and the roll looked strange. ...
grumpy ladies Today I tested how well Fomapan fares pushed in Rodinal. Although the result wasn’t quite as badly fogged as the T-Max 400 I pushed to 1600 recently, it still was fogged and not a very ...
and relax At the end of April before I started on the task of developing all those rolls from Argentina I bought another 100pack of archival negative sleeves for 35mm. I store all my negatives in archival ...
night watch Today I shot my last roll of Velvia 100 in the Mamiya. This means that I’ve now shot 10 rolls of 120 slide film and I only need to shoot 2 more rolls to be ...
summer The other day I already updated my portfolio page and now I’ve also taken the time to update my projects a little. There is a new project of self-portraits on film which is something I’ve ...
