Exciting digital and vintage times
About a month ago, I carried my 400D for two days around, because I haven't used it for so long. I decided not to continue to do so afterwards, because it nonetheless was a bit heavy besides my Leica.
Met Kira in the city for lunch and we decided to go to the Lindenhof.

Nice weather + Lindenhof = <3
Then I decided to accompany my father while he was working.

We went to a company, which produces large format prints (like 10m width and more) and some other stuff.

Their production hall. Oh yeah, see that tiny football, which will be in every Swiss football stadium, which will hold a match of the upcoming european cup.

In the evening, I visited a friend of mine, which got his own apartment with his older brother.

Fascination Leica

Next day I met Nadine. 'I don't want my picture taken!'

'I said stop, jerk!'

After a while she got comfortable with it.

Fooling around with Leica.

And in the evening we made some spare ribs and steaks on the grill.

My mother in the kitchen preparing stuff too.



I recently scanned some slide films by my father from the 60s and 70s. The first three pictures were taken with some Cosina camera, and the other two with a Nikon F.

your friend should let her take her picture more often; she's beautiful.

and ... your dad did some nice work, mate!!!!!!

hope you're well!

yeah, i don't really see a reason either why she doesn't want to, oh well.

he really did! should find some more slides by him and scan them, i bet there are some more very nice shots.

There's something very pleasing about looking at time gone by in photographs, especially if you are familiar with them.

I really like the shot of your dad next to the grill staring.
Posted by Pascal on
yes, you're definitely making a point there!

thanks, it's my favourite of this set as well :)

Nice look of the trix. I'm trying to get that mood through Allien Skin plug in for Photoshop, but nothing compares to this. Interesting photos and story.

aloha! Zurich airport was a big blur! although i do remember i did stop and stare!! ..and then quickly scurried away because i noticed people noticing me staring at what they probably thought was quite a mundane airport! ( i also took airport pics and ariel views that were for a novelty factor! haha )...and your houses are quite surreal! and the trees look so unreal, like they look like little plastic trees?..!! lol xxx

I have left this comment on every page that I like on UBER. It doesnt mean I dont like you if I didnt add you.
