Velocity, noise and rain..

A two days hike in late September with my father and uncle.

I was commissioned for some work (not on this blog) in Hong Kong in September, this is the first part from two. I Stayed 2 weeks in Wan Chai, Hong Kong Island, with days off in Kowloon and Macau. This was my first time in Asia, needless to say it was overwhelming in all ways!

Digital and Colornegative images are mixed here, the first person who figures out at least 2 analog images gets a free 20×30 print of choice for free!

For a photographer the adventure almost beginns at the airport :)

Victoria Harbour, they extending land here..

I saw 2 dogs in 2 weeks, this one definitely gave me a smile

I took the “Star Ferry” to go over to Kowloon.

Macau

thats how your lens look everytime you came out of the hotel or other conditioned areas

of course i had to take these shots..

you are right…it´s Berlin!

hipshot, it still seems they recognized me…

Prenzlauer Berg

at this place of the city it seems everybody can do and does what they want to do. thats great.

Hackescher Markt

and later we had some “currywuast”…no not really…

Some rolls from the last weeks. no words just pictures.

Tech: Color ones, M7, 50/2.0, Kodak Ektar 100. B/W M8, 50/2.0 and M7, TMY 400, 6×7, Mamiya 7, Expired Slide Film;

This will be my studio soon, but still a lot of work to do. I will update this to show whats going on there.

We had a lot of bad weather lately, also focusing with a rangefinder on a  motive like this is not easy actually when you are drunk. I somehow like it.

More randomness below.

Kerstin and me on a secret mission to Schönbrunn

shineeeee

and some shots from my so called “living-room camera” it is an old Nikon L35 AF2 on some expired color negative.

This is Sebastian.

Lets start this entry with an shot i found on an roll i forgot to develop. Its from last summer.

Schottentor

The first B/Ws from the Leica. I realised that the M is not an point and shoot so you have to focus very carefully.

I will think about that next time ;)

Some outtakes from the Südbahnhof, Kurt loves Film.
