and fourth shot.Two bw in fridge(I don’t have neg sleeves) and one slide sent of today.
shot today,fuji proplus II iso 100,guess exposures(1/250 f11 sun,f4 shadow). I can say I am pleased.
The filter doesn’t vignette and focus seems right(but I didn’t shoot wide open).
I am more then happy about the flare resistance.
What I don’t like – the lens is to damn light – the camera tilts back on it’s strap.
watched “Tideland”. I didn’t like it.Feels like it is meant to shock with no additional value.
It is intresting to watch group interaction in kids, but since I dislike human children(to damn loud)I prefer animals.
Whaaat?
The cautios supporter.
We are having a heat wave(42 degree celsius with sandy wind) which kills me.
I am bummed by the major car maintanance I have to pay for soon(100K Kilometers).
Got two long rolls(30.5m) of TRIX(new to me) and PLUSX. I am more or less set for BW film for the next year. Now I just need sleeves.
I watched several movies(בתי קפה,הכלה הסורית) nothing to write home about.
Note the cell phone on the carpet. That one was 28/1.8 at mid apperture(4-5.6?)
Sunrise reflected of clouds covering mountains.Arava road.
I added a warmig filter in PS2. I am guessing the 75-150/3.5 E series.
Beduin Mother with child. She is a good reason why Israeli soldiers never raped local women during wars.
Very Tolkien
Very 1001 nights
Beduin tourist bleeders. Ride a camel for 50$ (You can haggle down to 5$ – 80Euro if youre german.German tourists are the world’s suckers).
more ruins
Layer Cake
Beduin Cowboy
fat german tourists are just killing me.
Fancy
Blue
I might get some sort of of Zenit tommorow.
After three attempts – successfull scans:
A beduin soldier. They put him there to protect the antiques but mainly to be photographed by tourists.He was shy and pleasant.
Treasury.
A tourist stamp picture
Necropolis(?) carved into rock
Shrine(?).The rock formation and the man made architecture
compliment each other – man seemed to enhance(as opposed to ruin) it
More to come.
Watched:Aachi and Ssipal(great animation – deeply retarted plot),The Perfume(bad adaptaion of a mediocre book).
A test roll I shot with the yashicamat on velvia(50 or 100?) a couple of years ago.
View from my study in my parents room.Dusk. 1/2 – 1 second exposure
Abandoned Fire Truck – Beer Sheva
Not All TruckGo To Heaven – between Beer Sheva and Meytar
Fire Truck Depo Gate – Beer Sheva
Big square slides turn me on.
They are a bitch to scan – Shai Yochai helped me with PS to curve and color balance the last three.
I got a couple of new photo books in the last month:
Shim’on Korbman – “Different Tel Aviv 1919-1936“(I have his print at my parents house) and “Israeli Portraits” by Vardi Kahana.
Both are great – each in its own way.
