Moon Jelly-fish.
They are always in motion therefore I chose this shot because it is a chrisp stop action.
Wonderfool performing his trademarked (so he says) fire breathing off his bare skin.
He's really a funny guy and a great act to watch and photograph.
A photo walk on May 15, 2023 in Lyon, France.
I used my Rollei 35 camera (year 1973) and a Fomapan Creative 200 36-exposure film exposed for 160 ISO.
Expositions were determined using a Minolta Autometer III with a 10° finder for selective measurements privileging the shadow areas or the Rollei 35 build-in photometer oriented to the zone of interest. Typically, 1/250s, was used at f/8-f/11 to f/3.5. All the views were taken with a 24mm screwed Rollei filter anti-UV fitted on the Tessar 1:3,5 f=40mm lens with the original Rollei neoprene shade-hood.
Distances less than 6-7 meters were measured using a Magnusson laser telemeter.

After exposure, the film was processed using Adox Adonal (=Agfa Rodinal) developer at dilution 1+25, 20°C for 5 min.
The film was then digitalized using a Sony A7 body adapted to a Minolta Auto Bellows III and a Minolta Slide Duplicator using a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5 at a reproduction ratio of 1:1. The reproduced RAW files obtained were processed in LR prior the the final JPEG editions.
All views of the film are presented in the dedicated album either in the printed framed versions and unframed full-size jpeg.
About the camera and the lens:
This original Rollei 35 is equipped of the collapsible 40mm Tessar lens "Made by Rollei" under Carl Zeiss licence who designed the first 1:3.5 f=40mm Tessar lens for the Rollei 35. Original Rollei 35 were manufactured by Rollei Franke & Heideke company originally in Germany starting year 1966 then later in Singapore until 1981. Originally, the build-in CdS cell was design by Gossen and the central shutter by Compur. Diaphragm and shutter are operated mechanically by two wheels on the front of the camera. The CdS cell is coupled to both. The Rollei 35 was a miniature 35 mm camera weighting around 320g, about 100g more than the Rollei 35 LED for instance with less mechanical parts. Overall more than 2 millions of Rollei 35 camera were produced over 15 years under different versions. According the serial number (3 410 XXX) of this chrome-plated camera was produced by Rollei Singapore between 01/1971 and 06/1973 and likely after 04/1973 due to the Tessar lens "Made by Rollei" instead of formally Carl Zeiss Tessar (ref : rollei35.eu/rollei35numbers.php#r35ge). It came with its original leather pouch, the wrist strap, a Rollei soft collapsible shade hood, Rollei 24mm screw-on UV and medium yellow filters, and the original user manual.
Uploaded the original image of this photo a couple of weeks or so ago (viewable here). Inspired by other photos I've encountered here on flickr that were selectively colorised in a similar manner, I decided to enhance the image via Photoshop Elements.
You can selectively blur parts of an image, while keeping the rest intac in Photoshopt.
