One year ago we had more snow here..
Also had a 21mm f4 Color-Skopar to play with.
Shameless falling.

I admit this 20 year old Pan F+ 50 is holding up pretty well. Very fine.

Film Photographer Friday - #003
February Friday 10, 2012 - Film Photography Friday #003
n-y-l, also known as artddicted
http://n-y-l.tumblr.com
A wide range of gear is being used here, in brief, a Leica M6, Leica III, Nikon FE2, Nikon F3, Rollei 35S, Pentax 67, Nikon FM2, Hasselblad Xpan, Hasselblad 500CM, Voigtlander Bessa R3a, Leica Summicron, Canon 50mm f1.8……. and alllllllllot more I couldn’t list them all.
In short, this photographer excels whatever equipment is used.
There is a great feeling of continuation in all of these photos. They are best appreciated when you look at them all, it’s a storyline. Some photographers are better at individual photos, but I couldn’t help but be intrigued in clicking the next photo in n-y-l’s tumblr.
The intrigue is also based on location. There is no doubting, a location can always help a photograph. I love being able to see a different country from the eyes of one who lives or travels in it. This is actually a great trait of the internet, and even more social sites like tumblr, and flickr. You having to manually enter an image in, to share to people, is a huge positive.
The photographers eye though, is the determining factor. How n-y-l wants to portray these places, to me is fantastic. Shoot more, and figure it out later; that’s what I feel from these. This style is fantastic. I love the rawness of the images, the fact that sometimes they aren’t the best shots ever but it doesn’t matter, it intrigues you to move on to the next.
Then when you do run across a fantastic shot; it’s surreal and intense in what he is showing us. The isolation is immense, almost dream like. Street photographer doesn’t have to always be about depth of field, using isolation to break down the image, narrow a subject out is always fantastic to me.
His work also carries traits through the different equipment he uses. The style and signature of each camera, lens combo really does create the environment. This Xpan shot for example, is a great case of just that.
Please do check his work out, and his colour tumblr as well. There is a flickr link somewhere in there too.
I hope you enjoy this, and please “love” and send me suggestions. Til next Friday.

Someone was kind enough to write “Bitch” on these houses. on Flickr.

My OM-1 on Flickr.
Bought this off of Craigslist off a gentleman whose father went digital. It was well cared for and definitely shows.
I got along with it:
- Early Zuiko 50mm f1.8 (that i’m selling since i’m using my much later multi-coated one)
- Zuiko 28mm f3.5 Wide angle (great bit of glass)
- A 70-210mm Telephoto (selling cause i’ve no use for it)
- A wonderful battery adapter so I can use modern batteries in it.
Did I mention the meter works!? I’ve ran across quite a few of these with issues, de-silvering mirrors, and dead meters.
I’ve always wanted a working OM-1, they’re fantastic cameras and the glass is great to boot.
