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! ...
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 ...
self-portrait Finally it cooled down a bit and we went to San Telmo like we originally planned for yesterday. After having a bit of a look around and checking out some markets (where I didn’t buy ...
fog I have now all the film together for our trip to Argentina: 38 rolls of Fuji drugstore film, 2 rolls of Kodak Farbwelt (I wanted an even 40) and 10 rolls of Portra 400 for ...
vistas The roll I’m showing you today happened when I took a friend up the next hill to show her the view. I always go up there when I need to get the experience of a ...
companionship You know, little triumphs go like this: Turns out that the instant coffee I use for developing a lot of my film is cheaper when I buy two jars at once! I now also convinced ...
texture The other day I made a little mistake and scanned some medium format in 2400 dpi. Sure, the quality is great and you get seemingly infinite zoom, but boy does it take long to edit ...
shoot One of the rolls I developed earlier really made me smile. It was an entire roll of pictures from the city festival and I caught some great stuff. I’m very much looking forward to showing ...
old and new You know, I quite like taking pictures of traditions and collective behaviour, but I have to say that after hearing the same three marches repeatedly the whole day I’m actually sick and tired of it! ...
terminus Again such an early morning! I should really learn to go to bed earlier. If I don’t get at least 7h of sleep I tend to feel like a zombie (and the feeling might be ...
gossip Although I had already shot 5 rolls this week I couldn’t resist taking Nancy with me yesterday as well. This makes a total of 6 1/2 rolls this week and those will be the last ...
Kurdish protests in Düsseldorf Film has one disadvantage that I normally see as an advantage: Processing it involves more than just copy & paste. A lot of effort and skill goes into developing film and especially with black and ...
tea Despite the weather forecast it rained today and I didn’t get the opportunity to go out with my Rollei. I miss it though, so I decided to scan some older Rollei pictures. Tomorrow I might ...
Happy New Year 2015 First of all, I wish you all a Happy New Year! At the beginning of each year I always like to take stock of the previous year. Since I have started blogging in 2011 it has ...
like a good friend The last few days I’ve been scanning a lot, and still, I have about 14 developed rolls lying around here waiting to be scanned and another 10 rolls to be developed. I have given up ...
cat on a leash After a few days of colour film I now come back to a roll of black and white, because I really wanted to post some pictures from my Rollei. At the moment my Rollei is ...
How to develop black and white film the lazy way A lot of people feel rather intimidated by doing their own film development at home. I definitely understand it, I was worried myself and didn’t dare to try it myself until after someone else showed ...
sun gazing After trying out some C41 home development and having success with a cheap roll of drugstore film I decided to be a little more bold and develop the only 120 colour film roll I shot ...
abstraction These days not only the dismal weather is a hindrance, but also the darkness. Since we went to tango a little later today I had to go out earlier to shoot a couple of rolls, ...
