[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.
#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.
#5.5./5.6 – Portra and 400H
Diary shots with two color negative films.
#2.5 [Pollux] Compact 28 + Ultramax
My first color film for this project is a Kodak Ultramax, shot with a compact point & shoot and a fixed 28mm focal length.
#2.4 Diary Shots
Have been too curious how the Neopan 400 would turn out in TMax developer to delay shooting and had some fun on a winter’s day.
#2 [Pollux]: Fade To Grey
Berlin today: Grief at the day of Bowie’s death in front of the house where he lived. TMax 400, HC110, SMC-M 35/2.8
