Crash your camera!!!

You know the situation when you want to take some pictures, but in this moment your camera doesn't work. My girlfriend had this moment at October, 25th as she wanted to take some photos of a graffiti wall with her Konica Z-up 110 Super. She became veryveryvery angry and crashed the camera at the wall.
I shot this massacre with the Yashica T4 D and a Kodak VR+200 film.
I never used the date feature at a camera, but I thought that this moment needed the proof function to document this crime!

Of course, we used a broken Konica to stage this massacre! ;)

Posing for Tichý.

I like the shabby look of the pictures by Miroslav Tichý, because the atmosphere is like in a dream or in a fairy tale. Last time when the weather was foggy I shot some pictures with the red Konica Pop of my girlfriend and a AgfaPhoto APX 100 black&white film, also from my girlfriend. She already shot some pictures, which I'll show at the beginning.

"Photography is painting with light! The blurs, the spots, those are errors! But the errors are part of it, they give it poetry and turn it into painting. And for that you need as bad a camera as possible! If you want to be famous, you have to do whatever you're doing worse than anyone else in the whole world."

It was cold outside...part 2...

Once more I bought a camera at the Mimapi, which is really my personal camera hotspot in Cologne. This time I bought a Konica C35 AF in mint condition. I loaded it with an AgfaPhoto APX100 film and shot some pictures at New Year's eve and some days later after snowing.

The 2-Cameras-Double-Exposure-Project. part 4.

This project is based on the principle: learning by trial and error.
Some films are very tricky to use for a double exposure, like this Kodak Gold 100, which was in a wonderful red Konica Pop and then used in the Minolta 7000 AF with the Minolta 3.5-4.5/35-70mm lens by me. At some pictures the photo of the first photographer dominates the whole picture and at other pictures my photo is dominating. It's very hard to see in these cases the subordinate layer. But there are a few pictures, too, where both layers harmonize with each other.
I think the first photographer shot the pictures in the summer 1996, because as you can see at one of the pictures there is a poster for a party, which was on July 31st, 1996. But I can't imagine where he shot them.
In part 1 and 2 the model, my girlfriend, posed with vintage binoculars, in part 3 / 3.2 and the outsiders. part 1. she posed with a vintage Super 8 camera and in this part she posed with her beautiful vintage Nikon EM.
