Imacon Flextight scan. Usually I’m kinda annoyed by the fact, that it’s film holders won’t let me see the
whole image. The result of that is the lack of the black border. But this time I’m actually okay with it.

Testing some color variations for the upcoming Story I made in Poland.
Hi.
Just now I’m doing some research for a presentation I have to do tomorrow. I’ll talk about Larry Towell. He is a really nice guy - and he can sing, too. I totally dig his great
Leica camera song (how cool is that), but Amazon doesn’t let me buy it because I don’t live in the US.
It’s also available in the iTunes store, but again: only in the American iTunes store, where I can’t buy stuff. Oh boy, that’s what I call globalisation. If anyone knows a place where I can buy it, please let me know.
Yes! I love flea markets. It’s the quite rare XA4 Macro with the 28/3,5.

Maybe you want to have a look at the great Romka magazine. It features aspiring photographers from all over the world with their personal works - often quite raw, uncut and very subjective. Your can download the PDF’s for free over
here.
// Poland
In two weeks I’m going on a 13h train ride towards Poland and — of course — I’m struggling with the camera question. Always the same. I want to give digital color a try, because the (actually kinda neat) 5D is lying around most of the time. So… at the moment I’m looking for some nice color reportage stuff. After seeing and re-visiting really great storys (like
here or
here) I’m plain curious about how the final pictures will look and feel like (if I can resist shooting film).
Also, in terms of post processing. At the moment I see the stated storys as state of the art when it comes to handling color. I hope I’m able to come close to this in pp after I’ve shoot some hopefully interesting pictures over there.

Some time ago I found a list of things you might consider when you’re going on a (photo)trip.
