as i learned from experience it’s easier said than done… but “working” on it from time to time improves the quality of life.
Just wanted to shoot my “new” old Photax IV-F.
Well, the experience was not very nice. The viewfinder is really tiny and composing is almost impossible while wearing spectacles. It takes away the joy of taking pictures... Moreover, the endresult is not really something to write home about.
This bakelite camera was produced from 1951 till 1961 and gives you eight pictures of 6x9cm on 620 film. It is equipped with a single element (meniscus) lens.
There is a choice of two apertures and two shutterspeeds, although I cannot really hear any difference between 1/25 and 1/100.
The resulting pictures are not very sharp, to say the least.
I sharpened them a bit, something I almost never do with analog photos. And that is with these big 6x9 negatives... !
One good thing; the camera looks good on the shelf :-).
Film used was Kodak Ektar@100.
Developed with Cinestill C41 Color Simplified powder kit.
The colours turned out quite subdued….

I filled a glass baking dish with water and placed the daisy just barley under the water. I left the stem long enough to touch the bottom to keep it from moving around. After frozen I placed it in my window for back light to photograph it. Adjustments in LR and Topaz Simplify.
Yunnan (simplified Chinese: 云南; literally "South of the Clouds") is a province of the People's Republic of China, located in the far southwest of the country spanning approximately 394,000 square kilometers (152,000 square miles). The capital of the province is Kunming. The province borders Burma, Laos, and Vietnam.
Yunnan is noted for a very high level of ethnic diversity. It has the highest number of ethnic groups among all provinces and autonomous regions in China. Among the country's fifty-six recognised ethnic groups, twenty-five are found in Yunnan. Some 38% of the province's population are members of minorities, including the Yi, Bai, Hani, Tai, Dai, Miao, Lisu, Hui, Lahu, Va, Nakhi, Yao, Tibetan, Jingpo, Blang, Pumi, Nu, Achang, Jinuo, Mongolian, Derung, Manchu, Shui, and Buyei. Several other groups are represented, but they live neither in compact settlements nor do they reach the required threshold of five thousand to be awarded the official status of being present in the province. Some groups, such as the Mosuo, who are officially recognised as part of the Naxi, have in the past claimed official status as a national minority, and are now recognised with the status of Mosuo people.
Ethnic groups are widely distributed in the province. Some twenty-five minorities live in compact communities, each of which has a population of more than five thousand. Ten ethnic minorities living in border areas and river valleys include the Hui, Manchu (the Manchu, remnants of the Qing administration, do not live in compact settlements and are in all respects indistinguishable from the Han), Bai, Naxi, Mongolian, Zhuang, Dai, Achang, Buyei and Shui, with a combined population of 4.5 million; those in low mountainous areas are the Hani, Yao, Lahu, Va, Jingpo, Blang and Jino, with a combined population of 5 million; and those in high mountainous areas are Miao, Lisu, Tibetan, Pumi and Drung, with a total population of four million.
An oft-repeated proverb tells the story of three brothers who were born speaking different languages: Tibetan, Naxi, and Bai. Each settled in different areas of Yunnan and Tibet, respectively, the high area, the middle area, and the low area.

Overwhelmed by life? It helps me to remember that monkeys also exist, and they’re just chillin' in trees. If that doesn't work, take a nap.

"Simplify, simplify."

I know that the world is not in black and white... but this rose turned out with such beauty. The petals look so so transparent, soft, and delicate.
I know it's a little fuzzy...but...if I can get her interested in photography, it leaves lisa as the last stone!
[...] The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak [...]
