[Pollux]: Epilogue
Last article on 52 rolls: Sending cheers and showing samples of this year’s production.
#15 – Memories of Friendship
Personal moments on Tri-X 400, some thoughts about privacy and simplicity and a pixelpeeper pic right out of the Opton Tessar of ’51 with the special coating.
#14: Medium Format: The Rangefinder of ’51
Not pleased with the Hasselblad as a mobile device, so I purchased a collapsable Medium Format Rangefinder with a nicely coated lens – a Super Ikonta BX from the era of “A Streetcar Named Desire”, Duke Ellington and George Gershwin.
#13: Diary with a Point & Shoot
Blurred and vague images with a compact device and a wide angle lens that shall help to remember some of these days.
#12.0/12.1: Silvermax, F2 (24mm) + F5 (17mm + 210mm)
G.A.S. continues: Purchased a 24mm, this time an old manual model fitting for the F2. Girl celebrates her new shoes, man celebrates a new lens. Silvermax. Sun.
And: Brutalism appreciation with brutalistic gear, Silvermax and something between 17mm and 210mm.
#11.0/11.1: Parklife (Nikon F2)
Happy with the recently acquired Nikon F2, a nicely constructed precision machine from 1975, an inspiring instrument.
#10.0 – One Shot per Roll
Everything was ready, but the magazine of the Hasselblad felt like stopping the shooting after the first frame. So we cut a long story short.
#9.0: Tres Cosas
Gallery show, chess match and a relaxed girl with Neopan 400 and a Canon QL17GIII rangefinder.
#8.0: Helicopter
An emergency rescue helicopter landed on a mission in our park. I really like helicopters and the policemen allowed me to shoot some pictures.
#7.0-#7.2: Concert
Three rolls in two formats. The band let me come close and it turned out to be a nice collaboration.
#6.1-#6.3: Purchasing New Material, Celebrating
Three rolls of film with the AF600, visiting another district to purchase some Kodak Vision3 500T as a birthday gift and having a good time high above
#6.0 – Diary Shots, 135mm on the F4
Felt like practicing a little and missed the F4, so I chose the 135/2.8 non-Ai and a roll of Neopan 400 (N-2, TMax 1+4).
