Those three girls again… I walked past them again on Thursday and this time got up close and personal with the middle one. Almost demonic shot at 24mm.
I had to have a stiff drink afterwards…. 😉

…to go back to real film. None of this namby-pamby pixel nonsense…Well at least I met the urge half-way. To be a little serious a moment I just wanted to put a couple of films through my Hasselblad. I’ve finally found a local shop that processes C41 film. This shot however isn’t C41. I wanted to test the chemicals I had as well to see if they were ok.
Above you see a result. A table top shot of my pocket watch and my old but usable Yashica TLR.
For you film types still out there here’s what I did.
Camera: Hasselbald 203FE
Lens: Carl Zeiss 80mm f/2.8 FE on an E32 Extension tube.
Exposure: Unrecorded f/11 at something. Natural light, slow enough to blur the second hand on the watch.
Film: Rollei RPX100
Dev: 59 mins stand-developed (The lazy mans development method.Pour in and forget for an hour).in Adox Ardonal mixed 1+100. fixed and washed as normal.
Scan: Epson V700 using Silverfast SW. Using a Betterscanning.com holder.
Everything else Lightroom.
Learning to ride

My wife lends a helping hand to my nephews daughter while she was learning to ride without training wheels.
It’s about time I got back into film again. I have enough of it in the freezer and I do enjoy using it. I really feeling like I’m making the picture. It can be heartbreaking at times. However the rewards are,well worth it in my opinion.
Camera: Hasselbald 203FE
Lens: Hasselblad FE 110 f/2.0
Film: Fuji velvia  Converted in Silver Efex pro II

I do occasionally print my work. I’ve never really got used to not seeing pictures on paper. It’s almost a tactile thing like reading books. It’s nice to have something physical to look at not just some electrons that have arranged themselves on a screen. I took my time in choosing a printer with good black and white properties and finally fell for an Epson 3880 which takes A3+ sheets. It’s four years old now and still does a great job.
Tulips

Statues in the snow outside Gustav Vigeland’s museum in Oslo. I walk past these three once a month or so they always look like they are giving me cheek as I walk past. I took this on Thursday evening the thaw seems to be setting in now so they were a little easier to take a picture of.

On the beach

My son and daughter playing on a beach in the far north of Norway. A beautiful summers day with ice cold water.
Ps. This shot actually got published in a book here in Norway about Children and their relationships with nature.

Netley Marsh Steam Rally. A beautiful hot summers day and lots of old steam driven traction engines. Heaven for a photohound.
They do say “The best camera is the one you have with you at the time”. This was taken on a Canon powershot G9. I loved those G cameras.
