Knickers to you…..

April 24, 2017 by 53weeks

or a visit to the Hackischen Höfe (Berlin) with a rather surreal analogue film. Be sure to scroll through all the pictures. Strange sights, strange film, I particularly like the camel with a camera….. Leica M6; Summicron 35mm; ADOX Color Implosion

Week 14 – Green Trees ….

May 7, 2013 by 53weeks

There is much talk about the “Energy Turnaround” here, especially after Fukushima. I’ll leave it up to you to decide whether it’s beneficial to the environment or not…. I’m trying to rekindle my love with my Canon 5D at the moment and that coupled with my incompetence with my last roll of film means that you’re getting digital images remastered as Kodak Portra 400 nc (Natural Colour) this week. Canon 5D Canon f4 24-105 ISO 320 Aperture and Nik

Week 32 – The Belvedere ….. again

August 28, 2012 by 53weeks

I’m being very lenient with myself this week, not only am I using the British definition of a week (i.e. Sunday to Saturday, instead of the German Monday to Sunday), but I’m also posting something for the second time (see week 1) albeit from a very different angle.

Week 31 – Schlössernacht….

August 20, 2012 by 53weeks

or even the night of the palaces. This is an annual “cultural feast” during which the Sanssouci Park opens its gates to visitors well into the night. The palaces are ablaze with light and classical music resounds from every corner, this is rounded off with a fantastic firework display at midnight. We managed to sneak on the eve of the occasion while all was quiet for a quick nosey.

These are the last two taken on holiday. The first one shows the lovely fishing village of Polperro which was just down the road from Looe (Cornwall) where we spent the second week of our England and Wales round-trip. The second picture was shot on the way back to Harwich at Stonehenge. f/14 1/125 ISO 400 @17mm f/14 1/250 ISO 400 @30mm Pol. Filter
