by you




From Leo's latest medium format roll. It's been so long since I shot anything on medium format that I loaded my twin lens camera with some slide film a few days ago and went for a walk through the forest. Shooting medium format is such a different feeling compared to 35mm, I have no idea why I don't do it more often.

    take your medium format out more! I'm in full support of that! Its by far my favorite format so I'm a little biased.

  16. thanks everyone, both from leo and myself :)

    kitchu: I have a holga as well, but real medium format is much more fun :)

    anonymous/marie: haha, this not smiling-thing sometimes seems to be a serious issue for some people. but I think that a smile should be spontaneous, and it is a moment that should be captured just when it happens - otherwise I think smiling in front of a camera looks very forced and posed, and sometimes even fake. shooting medium format is not spontaneous at all, when Leo takes pictures of me I usually sit in front of the camera for quite some time before he is ready to actually take the picture, and if I were to smile then it would feel very wrong and forced. however, there are some smiling photos of me, one that I can think of at this moment is this one: www.flickr.com/photos/tage/4040947898 :)

    thank you for the request, you are totally right. actually, i think that i just wanted to know a little about it.

    i love your work, it's for me like enter in a different world, beautiful, magical, really amazing, it's poetry.. some photos remind me a pre-raphaelite line, so so special :)

    keep going, you and leo!
