Futuro 001
Futuro, or Futuro House, is a round, prefabricated house designed by Matti Suuronen, of which fewer than 100 were built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. The distinctive flying saucer like shape and airplane hatch entrance has made the houses popular among collectors. The Futuro is composed of fiberglass-reinforced polyester plastic, measuring 4 metres high and 8 metres in diameter.
The WeeGee Exhibition Centre, Tapiola, Espoo, Finland is a cornucopia of museums, exhibitions and events, includes five museums, a modern art gallery, a café and three museum shops. This building, originally designed as a printing house by architect Aarno Ruusuvuori, has been transformed into a unique exhibition centre for culture and different events. It contains over 20'000 square metres of living culture, art, exhibitions and events.
Futuro 001 has been owned by TV celebrity Matti Kuusla since its manufacture. It is worth noting that despite the 001 numbering this was not the first Futuro manufactured - the prototype was numbered 000 and that Futuro has been fully restored and is on display at the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam, Netherlands. The Futuro has spent its life on a lakeside property in Hirvensalmi where, mainly because it has never had an electrical supply, it has been only used in a very limited way.
Bit of a project for my AS photography exam title which is Evidence Of Human Presence. I was kinda working along a Weegee/Banksy theme for these. Had a lot of fun doing this :D

She's really a lovely woman to talk to, although......( I'll leave it to you to know her). she is currently working as a public servants as there are thousands of them in Ottawa Valley.
The camera had a horrible problem with noise at even moderate iso. I turned that weakness into a strength by using it to create this old timey look reminiscent of Weegee in photos from a vintage wear party.
The images are 100% in camera without any post processing.
I recently learned of the works of Weegee. Fascinating photography. I especially liked his crowd shots of Coney Island and so until Coney becomes as populated as this scene I thought I'd take the opportunity to try my hand at an Homage to this photographer.
This was before i edited some overlays into the image to make it look more like it was taken on film, i used the creative effects built into my camera to achieve the black and white filter.
sadly in this photo i forgot to set my camera to weegees camera preset of f/16 at 1/200 of a second and that's why i think the image isn't as dramatic as the one i set to his preset. overall i had fun playing around with the camera settings even though it was confusing at first.
