Hi Eduard,
Nice shot! Did you trip the shutter using the self timer?

Hi Frank,
I thought if I'm hiding behind my Kiev it makes obvious I didn't use the self timer; but now I think I was able to use self timer anyway  Nonetheless, no I didn't use the self timer. It was my first B&W shot (actually four of them) after a many years gap of using colour film due to disapearance of B&W film from Ukrainian market; before I figured out where I can get B&W film for reasonable price in Toronto. Actually, that was Agfa APX film that Bill gave me during my first RFF meet (you were there also).
I was outside smoking and watching how street life reflects in a Toyota van parked on a driveway. I like reflections, I like to be in a quiet place and see reflections of something completely different. So, I took my Kiev and made a shot, then again I waited for a better reflection and thought I found it. Then I looked into a van as a mirror and I liked distorted image of myself, and I shot third frame. And this time winding the film I paid my attention that rewind knob isn't spinning. Not really paid attention but I guess I somehow have seen it. I don't know why, but then I just pressed release button and randomly shot the wall and winding the film this time I was sure - it doesn't go out of cassette. All these pictures took place at a 00 mark on the film. I didn't like this negative and didn't ever scan it. Ocassionally looking couple of times through this negative in a darkroom I decided it must go; probably dim red light or something else made me change my mind.
Eduard. |

The red kitchen isn't red any more. I'm a year older now, and a year happier. Taken - duuuuh - with my Canon G3. I still used it then. I hadn't discovered here yet. |

Hi Lynn -- Shots like yours are valuable in recording what it was like at the time... you and your red kitchen and your Canon! I have a G3 myself which I use only for documenting property mainenance and snapping other cameras for upload here; I generally find the modal controls confusing. I see barrel distortion here so I guess you must have had the zoom cranked out to the widest setting...

@ Lubitel,
no, it is a portrait of a friend of mine playing on the beach at sunset (I'm too lazy for those kind of jump).
This is my self portrait (i'm the one on the background... )
bye.

Ray, I like that one, the heavy shadow imposed on the wavering reeds, and the tones of the water sinking to impenetrable depth...

Here's me, taken from a Rolleiflex Automat MX with a Xenar lens. The Autocord, beauty that it is/was, is no longer with me. It's still waiting in Jocko's apartment for Lynn to pick up. We made a nice couple, however.
