Back to analogue – Part 4: Streets of Linz on Kodak Ektar 100
I may have found a film that works for me. Although it remains to be seen whether it worked out for the indoor shots I took the other day. I have not quite finished that roll. But I did take a complete roll of 36 during my photo school weekend (I am currently studying for…

Back to analogue – Part 3: Vienna views on Kodak Ultramax 400
My heart starts beating faster these days when the download link with scans of my latest analogue photos arrives from the photo lab. Will it have worked out? Getting a transfer is in itself a good sign – at least now I know that the film was transported and exposed! This time I tried out…

Back to analogue – Part 2: Vienna Classic Days with Yashica Electro 35
One week ago my camera collecting friend, photographer Reinhard Prenn (the one who passed on his analogue bug, which by now has seriously infected me), brought me a new old camera to try out: The Yashica Electro 35. This was not the camera I was initially supposed to shoot with for this project, but there…

Back to analogue – Part 1: Venice, lomified
I grew up with analogue photography, but after I started using a digital camera some 20 years ago I never looked back. Until now, that is. There has of course been a trend, especially among young people but also among seasoned photographers, to go back to analog. It seems to have acquired a certain coolness…

The pale mountains
As for many of us the global Covid-19 pandemic put a spanner in the travel works, we decided on a trip closer to home than the one originally planned. We spent last week in the South Tyrolian Alps, between Toblach and Dorf Tirol. Here I share some of my impressions and my photography.

Venice in between
Between the floods (the terrible Acqua Alta of 12 Nov 2019) and the lock-down due to the Covid-19 epidemic in 2020, Venice has not had much luck lately. La Serenissima Repubblica di San Marco is suffering, and I feel for the inhabitants of this beautiful city (and of course all others affected by it). Usually…

Easy sweeps of sky – down to Key West
During our two week vacation in January, I managed to persuade my initially reluctant husband to take a trip down to Key West. “It´s such a long drive,” he moaned. But what a drive! In glorious sunny weather with clear blue skies, we took off down the famous U.S. Route 1. That longest of all…

Italian vibes in Miami
A year ago we drove from Vienna all the way to the Amalfi coast, in search of a bit of warmth. We were not so lucky, most of the time it was rather cold and rainy. But this January, we really did get lucky – only what you see here is not really Italy. When…

London in December
I spent a few – all too few – days in London in early December 2019. Not my first time, and it will not be my last if I can help it. It was the pre-Christmas time, so days were short and there were Christmas decorations everywhere. Lovely for capturing the glow of warm indoor…
