Let’s stay with the Canon A1 for a moment and take a big step back in time.

On 8 April 2016, I wrote on this site:

" A couple of years ago I was so lucky to buy a Canon A-1 for peanuts and it has been around my neck for uncountable hours "

This photo was part of a series with which I took my first steps in an attempt at model photography ...

In 2016 I wrote :
" I think I can say that I’m aiming for an artistic approach to film photography, therefore it was sort of a natural evolution that I also wanted to shoot with models and even nude. It‘s indeed not easy to find a good model. I contacted an artistic model for my first nude shoot attempts. She was used to modelling for art classes but not in front of a camera. "

The Canon A1 is actually one of my favourite cameras and this is
a collection that’s still far from complete !

The portrait was taken with my Canon A1 and an MD 50mm 1.4 lens.

I was able to buy the A1 years ago for next to nothing, and it has always been both a travel companion and a camera I used for #model photography.

I’ll add the photo to this collection as well

We’ll stick with the Canon A1 for a bit longer,
as it’s actually one of my favourite cameras and a collection that’s still far from complete !

This artist from Brussels posed for me.
She is a jewellery designer and part of an artistic couple who are also active here.
Both are artists and pose for one another, and above all they are draughtsmen and painters.

She has already featured in a similar photograph...

Looking for connections...
In the previous photo, you saw Helen with poppy seeds,

and it seems they’re making a reappearance in my collections

A portrait of Kris

For colour portrait photos, I usually used my Canon A1
https://pixelfed.social/c/849982235156462364

It was a favourite camera of mine for a long time, and I realise now that I really should add to my collection .

Kris was also a sort of muse for a long time, and I could certainly put together a collection of photos of her too! She has featured here before, for example in this photo:

The portrait was taken with my Canon A1 and an MD 50mm 1.4 lens.
