inside an abandoned old dance club/youth club in sandset, vesterålen. evidence showed that through the years this place have been re-occupied by loafers, new-agers and kids feeding an urge to smash things to bits. my parents told me they came there often when they were younger, to dance and meet friends.

the canon a-1 is described as ‘the ultimate reference camera in many minds for over a quarter of a century’. read more about the wonderful a-1 here. i recently got this baby so cheap it’s almost funny – and that included the 50mm 1.4 lens.

cheap film (kodak 200 ‘color plus’). great camera.

another one from the olympus om-30. the battery for the light meter was dead so i exposed this roll using manual mode. another roll got entirely ruined because i had the camera mistakenly set to automatic.

the hotel riga, where we stayed. the corridors were delightfully creepy. jack would feel very much at home here, methinks.

little accidents from riga.
shot this may using fuji superia 200 (bought in riga at a silly price) and the trusty ol’ pentax me.

the bottom picture is from an awsome outdoor photo exhibition at the doma square in riga. the original documentary project from 1987 was followed by a “20 years later” edition in 2007. read more about it here. works from the exhibition can be found here.

taken on a lazy sunday some time in the late spring using my pentax me. it’s a great street shooter, fast and reliable. check out the news section for a little camera update!

random shots from around town.
if you examine the pictures closely (it’s easy on the thumbnails anyway) you can see that there’s a streak of shading in them, approximately 1/4 wide and toward the edge of the frame. i think this is a case of slow shutter curtains in the poor old zenit. on this page, the author sort of brags about the excellence of the mechanics and design of the shutter curtains on zenit cameras, as opposed the leica, for instance. he’s probably right and all. i just happen to own a zenit that has started showing symptoms of age (and/or irregular or rare usage).

zenit 122 and fuji rxp (provia 400).

the two pictures on top were taken with the macro converter fitted on what i think was the 105mm f2.4 super takumar lens. can’t remember, but judging by the depth of field here that would be my guess.

the last picture.. well, it was the start of the roll and something happened. cool overlap / double exposure though. i love it when those kinds of things happen.

again, the fantastic pentax 67. i can’t begin to describe how much i love this camera. i wish it was mine to keep.
shot on a beautiful sunday using fuji pro 160s. mildly retouched for dust and scratches, no adjustments whatsoever to colors or levels or curves. what you see here is what got caught on film.

the scanner is back!

shot some time between december 2007 and february 2008. picture two and three are the first real attempts at bulb exposure. the first one just shows that using a piece of tape to hold the bulb/normal switch in ‘normal’ mode doesn’t always work.

can’t tell from the negatives which exact film type this is, it just says fuji 400-o. i think it’s from the handful of expired rolls that i got for free from a guy. nice guy.

the guy riding it came along right after i took the shot. i took a few pictures of him on top of it as well, but he said he didn’t want them published, so… i may … break that promise … later on.
