This pictures reminds me a bit to a picture of Anthony Suau.
The winner of the WORLD PRESS PHOTO 2009
Here is the picture.

Took a lot of shots the last weeks. Had no time to post them. Played some gigs with different bands and between the rehearsals and shows I sometimes have time to take some pictures. I took more pictures on the road with my digital camera. So, this is the post of my scanned Neopan 400 negatives. I took very much digital pictures with my LX3 from some gigs and trips. I´ll post the best of them in the next post. Here is the analog stuff. Click the picture for a bigger view and the description.

Bought 2 rolls of Fuji Superia 400 and took some pictures in Heidelberg and Mannheim. Compared the negative scans to cheap ROSSMANN 400 film. I have to say there IS a difference. I really like the Superia colours. The ROSSMAN film has much more red and the Superia looks more neutral to me. So, I DON`T think that ROSSMANN 400 film ist the same as Fuji Superia! Here are some ROSSMANN Scans.
And here the Superia pictures taken with a LEICA CL, Summicron-C, 40mm, scanned with a CANON 8800f.

Hi. Happy new year by the way. It´s 2010!
I got a OLYMPUS OM-2 with a 50mm, f/1.8 glass on it. I really like this camera. Also I got tired of waiting for my scans, so I bought a scanner. A CANON CanoScan 8800f. It´s a good scanner so far but it´s very slow. So I traded time for money. But I think it was a good decision because I really like film. I can´t really explain, but taking pictures with film is different. I need more time for the whole thing. Buying film, loading the camera, developing (not myself), scanning (now myself) and some correction like cropping the negative scans some colour correction and (hopefully) a good hand for sharpening and dust removing. That takes time. But its the same with all the analog stuff like vinyl or tube amplifiers and so on. It´s a different feeling and you have somehow the feeling to get something real, something, that is not 0 and 1. So, here are some test shots with the Olympus on cheap 400 ISO colourfilm I bought at ROSSMANN for 0,99 Euros scanned with my new Canon 8800f.
