My photo exhibition for tomorrow,
https://pixelfed.social/p/LievenSymaeys/954800135924881127
Is all set up !
I’ve got some time for other things...

My after shoulder operation test collection !
https://pixelfed.social/c/951011603116521647

I think, looking at this photo, that I’m a bit further along in my rehabilitation and can already hold the viewfinder up to my eye !

The smallest camera I own is the Yashica Electro35 MC
https://pixelfed.social/c/814513297743534409

So I’d tested it beforehand to see if I could actually operate it with my left hand.
It was also the first time I’d used colour film in my tiny little Yashica

So I’ll show you a selection of these tests

The lab in #ghent I’ve been using all my life (and get very little credit for) has had its full-frame negative scanner break down. So I’m missing my proof that I don’t crop my photos… sorry about that !!


It’s an unbelievably small and charming little #camera#analog is timeless. #filmphotography #ishootfilm #grainisgood #film #yashicaelectro35 #colorfilm #kodakgold #kodak #hospital #surgery #lefthand #bandage #seaside #nieuwpoort #sea #noordzee

First and foremost, I really miss the film negative borders on my photos, it’s a shame !

And now we can talk about the patterns that repeat themselves in life...

Of course, we find ourselves back in the same places time and again in life, because we enjoy being there, for example. Because we just can’t help ourselves! I’d tried to take this photo before https://pixelfed.social/p/LievenSymaeys/875611795484792730 because it’s a place where all the fishermen who have lost their lives at sea are honoured and remembered.
And there is also this artwork by Mark Macken, Vissersdroom ‘Fisherman's Dream’

First color tests with my Rolleicord Medium Format camera. I am very pleased with the results. Thinking about upgrading my scanning setup to get more out of the negative size. Currently "scanning" using my 26mp Xpro3. #rolleicordV and #kodakgold #120film

I started going for a walk.
And I did that every day and took my Yashica Electro35 MC

I’ve walked to the centre of the Ghent a few times now, and of course I follow the River Leie for a bit along the way. A sunny day and a little red boat...

Киев-4, Kodak Gold.
К сожалению, почти все кадры с объективом Юпитер-12 имеют характерную засветку (внешний байонет травит свет?), подмотаю пока изолентой, чтоб выяснить, где именно. Потом может от старого Contax поставлю байонет.

Киев-4 меня серьёзно разочаровывает в плане утечек света. Думал, эта, другая камера будет надёжной, а поди ж ты, с внешним байонетом проблемы. Первая моя камера этой модели вообще сильно травит свет в нетривиальных местах и тоже ждёт изоленты...
Это вдвойне обидно, потому что сам концепт Киев/Contax очень удобен, объективы рисуют очень красиво. А получается, что нужно таскать громадный Canon EOS или Зоркий, для которого у меня объективы попроще.

Возиться с цветом пока очень сложно, долго и дорого, нужно искать способ как-то стабильно это поставить на поток. Иначе отбивает любое желание.

left-handed photography
First and foremost, I really miss the film negative borders on my photos, it’s a shame!

So I found a solution for my analog photography during my recovery period and thought that #landscapes would work out fine with my little Yashica...

On my walks, I also took photos of a few old houses in my neighbourhood. I’m no architect at all, but certain styles still appeal to me. And the incredible architectural chaos you see in #Belgium is what makes it unique. A phenomenon in my neighbourhood and elsewhere is that old houses and villas are no longer being renovated but demolished, usually to make way for a block of #flats on the same site. It’s happening at such a pace that the typical #town or #village character is disappearing completely.

Sadly, this fantastic large #farmhouse is also set to be demolished
