Spooky mood.

The use of old and expired films are often very tricky. I often use films, which are expired for some years. Sometimes the films are expired for more than 10 years. Two times I used Orwo black&white films, which were expired for more than 27 years (a NP20 and a NP27).
This time I used once more an old black&white Orwo film, once more an Orwo NP20, but this time this film is expired for more than 40 years!!! More precisely, since January 1975!!!!!!

I used the Orwo in my Lubitel 166B and shot the ISO 80 film @ ISO 25. For the necessary light I used a Brillant E18B flash.

The pictures have a spooky mood...

Yes, you can recognize very little of the motive. Luckily I photographed the motive also with my Minolta Dynax 600si Classic and a Tokina SD 4.5-5.6/70-210mm AF lens. The film was a fresh AgfaPhoto APX 100 black&white.

The purple sky.

Some pictures which I made with an old cheap digital camera, but the colors...

shells in the sand.

Yesterday on a bike ride along the Rhine I discovered some beautiful shells on the shore and photographed them.

the wrapped cameras

Some years ago, it was in 2009, I packed an old camera in a plastic bag and tied it with a rope. It was a cool installation.

But after this I wanted to use the camera to shoot some pictures, therefore I unpacked her.
Now I made two new wrapped camera installations with broken cameras:

the macro effect: EOS meets Minolta - part 2.

After the Minolta MC Rokkor-PG 1.4/50mm in part 1, I used now the Minolta MD W.Rokkor 2.8/35mm lens with my EOS DSLR @ 2.8.

It's wonderful that you can use your old prime lenses at your modern digital camera. I have some great Minolta lenses that I use with an adapter at my DSLR.
This time I used my Minolta MC Rokkor-PG 1.4/50mm lens at my EOS to shoot some macro pictures @ 1.4.
