it’s been a while since i’ve posted something new up here… for now i’m going to post some older pictures. the reason why i haven’t posted them before is because i was not too happy with the development and the prints. i had some rolls developed and printed in another shop than i’m used to and they fucked up the development quite bad. the prints… yeah well… the prints came out quite greenish. not much of a surprise, if you know that they print analogue b/w pics on digital photo paper(Fujicolor crystal archive paper) -_- i think they should chop off people’s hands for doing such things.. really!

 

i was quite gutted about it and it only strengthened the idea of having a darkroom of my own. even though i haven’t developed film before.. i can only try, right? that way there’ll be no one else to blame but myself when the negs/prints look like crap…

 

ah well.. enough ranting for one day :-D i’ll start posting pictures now…

 

all pictures were taken with my bessa r3m, nokton 40/1.4, tri-x

 

 

a day in Ghent..

 

things like this might happen when you’re fiddling too much with settings and are too late to capture the scene.. caught in the act! :-D

 

dogs like ice cream too ^^

 

i just had to photograph this to make sure that i wasn’t having any hallucinations of giant michelin puppets walking through Ghent.
