Thankful for black and white :)

Indeed I am. Since our collective self-imposed quarantine has started, I haven’t been able to take or send my color films out for development. It’s going to be ages before I see those photos now.. Hopefully everyone’s doing all right out there, staying safe and not getting too much cabin fever from all the social […]

Catching up to the present any minute now

Just developed the last remaining black and white films from last year. Two of them were Ilford PANF 50, shot with the M7, and I just read on the Ilford website that you’re supposed to develop them right away (or at the max after three months). This makes a lot of sense looking at the […]

4 black and whites, finally

I FINALLY developed my first black and whites in the new apartment :) 1 Ilford Delta 100 & 3 Kodak T-max 400. The Ilford was developed in HC-110 (dilution H), but I wasn’t very happy with the results (I think my HC-110 is going bad, if that’s even possible). The 3 T-max were developed in […]

Neon Motel Photoshoot

I’ve been very excited to use my recently acquired flash gels on color film. This motel shoot was the perfect opportunity. I think they came out great :) Shot with the M7 and the SF-20 Flash. Part of the new series: NEON MOTEL Roll 1: Kodak Portra 160 & a leftover shot with a Delta […]

Syros, Part 2: color

The color films from our Easter trip are finally back from the lab (took forever because of the two slide films at the end of the post, which were worth it). Here are the photos :) – WARNING – LONG POST (10 rolls in total) – Roll 1: Kodak Portra 400 (mostly from the ferry […]

Syros, Part 1: black and white

This Easter, we visited the island of Syros for a truly relaxing holiday in Ermoupoli. This was my first holiday with the M7 and, in the 8 days of the trip, I ended up shooting about 15 rolls of both color and black and white film. The color films are not yet back from the […]

Villa Betty, cats, puppies, Rosalia & high heels

Just developed and scanned 3 Kodak Tmax100 films, shot mostly with my new Voigtlander Nokton 50mm f1.2 VM. What a treat of a lens! Pure pleasure :) “Villa Betty” in Leros: diamond rain droplets: Mira: & Hercules aka “The Favourite”: Lee with Big Maybelle ❤️: Mingus: Pepper: Some night shots @ Alinda in Leros: A […]

Let there be color

I finished scanning my first color films from the M7 (and a final color film from the 35ti, from last winter in Athens). Let there be color :) First, the venerable Kodak Ektar 100, paired with the Summicron 35mm, and combined with the extra luscious spring we ‘re having this year in the island of […]

Bodrum

After a month of non-stop work that included weekends, I finally had the chance to take a break and go on a three-day trip to Bodrum, Turkey. Bodrum is only a couple of short ferry rides away from the island of Leros and it was very interesting to visit somewhere so close, yet so different. […]
