Barely lit indoor trials with my Instant Pinhole Camera. If you feel like making your own instant pinhole camera, here's the tutorial I shared last year, or click here to see how to turn an empty film box into a 35mm pinhole camera. More pinhole tutorials on their way :-)

LC-A+ Russia Day: Out with the Doggies

Diana Mini: The Raging Puppy


Some time ago Dru and I were playing the raging puppies in my bedroom, which is something we do on a daily basis. The roll in the Mini was yet to finish, so I gave it a try.


 I actually thought nothing would turn out as she was shaking like crazy.


She really was indeed.


And she was also making the funniest growls.


I also happened to shoot an accidental double exposure, but her white fur is just too white to see it.


Then all of a sudden she calmed down. And grew quite serious. 


And so I thought to take a couple of silly self portraits.


I told you they were silly. 

Overall, I'm quite pleased with this film, and I guess this camera  is pretty growing on me as well.

Canon Ae-1: Tiny T.


Last post featured my mom's jumbo puppy, aka Big T. This time it's all about my sister's tiny pomeranian, aka Little T.
This little guy's been living with us since 2006 and yet I don't have many pictures of him... like less than 20, digital pics included - omg! This is mostly due to the fact that he's an hyperactive buddy always on the go, and ain't no shutter fast enough to capture him. Some time ago I was lucky enough to find him sleeping on my bed while I was hanging around with my camera, so there he is. Isn't he cute?


I'm in love with the lightleak in the first picture and I'm in love with my Canon Ae-1 too, obviously!

Canon Ae-1: TroubleMaker


Last summer my mom had the worst idea ever: taking a Rottweiler puppy home. I mean, she's cute and all, but she's such a troublemaker. At least, I have another subject to take pictures of, and she's so lazy that she never minds to pose for me.


Let's face it, this girl looks pretty intense. She was only five months old when I took these [last October], she now looks more like a nasty killer-dog, and weighs a ton. And loves to chew stuff.
Don't tell mom I put these on the www, or she might think I'm kinda fond of her puppy, which is not, I promise :-)

Lomo LC-A+ "Russia Day": Time Well Spent




Late October. Waking up late, eating pasta on my bed while watching The Vampire Diaries, reading, drawing, watching some more tv and then going back to sleep.

The green light is just natural light through some weird curtains I 've made that my mom hates. It doesn't look that green in real life, actually.

Canon Ae-1: Dru









I love film because it makes your dog's fur look in picture as soft as it feels on your skin. Forever.

I look at the second picture from above, and it feels like caressing her. I feel empty when I think I might not be able to stroke her someday. That's why I choose film. Because it will make it easier to remember how my fingers tingled sinking into her coat.

Olympus µ: Instant Memories on 35mm



Last summer I took about fifty instant pictures with my Diana F+, mostly pictures of my friends at the seaside and my dogs at home. I'd love to try my SX-70 cameras, but since Polaroid/Impossible film is so expensive, I guess I'll keep using Fuji Instax Film the most. 

I took these two pictures with my Olympus µ [can't remember which series], a camera I really liked, too bad it doesn't seem to work, gotta get myself a new battery [which I can't seem to find anywhere].

Tomorrow I'm leaving for a "mid-week weekend" at the seaside with B, hope I'll get to try my brand new LC-A+ Russia Day and maybe some multilensed camera or the Fisheye, we'll see!
