While the smell of sulphur was unpleasant, the feeling of the clean alpine air and crystal clear water was very welcoming after the heat of the previous summer day.

Though there were many frames that I did not like immediately after development, which led me to wait many months before trying to work with the roll, I liked this from the start. The placement of the rocks, as well as the mountains and the buildings, were exactly the type of composition I was hoping to work with using the Nikkor 28mm f2.8 AIS.

Why I did not use a tripod for the other photos on the 135mm lens, I can only point the the fact that I was with another person, and did not want to make them uncomfortable to wait. Not a mistake I will make again.

硫黄のにおいは正直ちょっと嫌だったけど、それでも前日の夏の暑さの後だったから、アルプスの澄んだ空気と透き通った水の感覚はすごく心地よかった。

 

現像してすぐには気に入らなかったカットが多くて、そのロールを触るまでに何ヶ月もかかったんだけど、この一枚は最初から気に入っていた。岩の配置や山々、建物のバランスがまさに、Nikkor 28mm f2.8 AISで撮りたかった構図だったんだ。

 

135mmのレンズで撮った他の写真でなぜ三脚を使わなかったのか… それは一緒にいた相手に気を使って、待たせたくなかったからとしか言えない。けど、それはもう二度と繰り返さないつもり。
