blog tag: Ilford HP5+

Pictures taken on Ilford HP5+ film.

around the corner

A few days ago I got Sally Mann’s wonderful book “Hold Still” in the mail and already read the whole of it. I found it inspiring, funny and at times a little grim, which in ...

special

The other day my mum complained that I don’t tell any stories anymore that go with my pictures. Well, the truth is that there just isn’t anything to tell! This “city” is so small that everything interesting ...

surf culture

Today we returned from a short trip to Bilbao. The weather was surprisingly good, so we used our time to take pictures, explore the city a bit more and go to a couple of museums. ...

thirsty

Many times my experiments in photography are motivated by the question “what if?” It all started with the question: What if I were to shoot a picture a day for a year? What would happen ...

chess masters

These days every morning seems surpass the previous one in greyness. Oh yes, it’s ugly out there: dark, cold, windy, rainy and it certainly isn’t any fun to go out and shoot in this kind ...

perpetually grumpy

Today I finished the first roll of 120 this year. Although it was sunny outside it was still rather uncomfortable and windy, which made it a little annoying to shoot. Despite the dry weather of course ...

sneaky

Yesterday the impossible happened: My Rodinal apparently experienced sudden death and took one of my rolls with it. I would have been annoyed under normal circumstances already, but in this case it was even more of a ...

hide and seek

I had a difficult couple of weeks and have been taking it easy to help my health recover. I still keep myself occupied with learning Russian and I think I’m making good progress at least on ...

hi there

Occasionally I get very fed up with my health. Especially these days it keeps acting up and it’s hard to figure out why. However, I have come to understand that with chronic stuff it sometimes ...

no dogs allowed

Today I finally managed to get x-ray protector bags for our next trip to Argentina in December. They had been always out of stock, but now they’re finally on their way to me, together with ...

hands up

The last two weeks I’ve been taking it relatively easy. Although I’ve spent quite a bit of my time studying Russian, I made sure I had tons of time to relax to watch series and ...

sunny days

I’m glad to report that yesterday and today I finished a roll of film each. The roll count this month is still appallingly low, but at least I’m not entirely unproductive photographically. The only good ...

close to the water

With any long term endeavour progress sometimes seems difficult to measure. It’s definitely hard for me to see my own development clearly until I take a step back and look over the work of a ...

football

After many months of shooting almost daily I find myself in a position where I can’t seem to shoot much. I guess I need to just be patient and wait for the circumstances to improve ...

vamos

Lately I’ve finished two big chunks of work that have kept me busy for months. One of them was to develop and edit all the film I had shot in Argentina in April and the ...

sniff

As I mentioned the other day, I’m trying to improve my Russian at the moment. The one thing I love about learning languages is obscure tidbits of interesting information that sort of tell you something ...

volatile situation

Today I managed to take at least a few pictures despite the rather appalling weather. I guess it’s autumn now for real and it will be more problematic now to get good pictures with all ...

checking for ear worms

After already dealing with a few more rolls of Fomapan 400 last night I only have 2 more of them left to develop, before I start with the Argenti ARF+ 400. First I will try ...

black and white sunset

It’s the week of the film festival over here, so the last couple of days we saw two rather good movies. Yesterday we even braved the torrential rains and came out for the last showing ...

on fire

After lots of idle talk I have finally made an effort and added some of my film stuff to my portfolio. Since I have been experimenting a lot, I’m still struggling to find the connecting ...
