Urban Chaos | Monomad Challenge

in Black And White • last month

Hello again 🤘

My partner and I just arrived to Cyprus, and so right now I don't have as much time to invest in a more theme-oriented post. I've got some ideas still cooking in my head, but they'll have to wait until I've settled in a bit. This time I've decided to keep it simple.

So here it is - a few chaotic street shots I fished out of my film archives and glued together.


I always liked them a lot, especially how specific they feel, as if I shot them through a microscope (that is - a pretty wide one). It kind of became my second nature these days - to be specific. Don't have that many recent wide-open shots in my archives. A change of style, I guess, and one that probably has more to do with my equipment having an effect on me, rather than a direct change of taste. Maybe it's both. A nice 70/30 mix of the two. The gist of this theory is I have only one lens for this Nikkormat N-ftn film camera, a lovely 50mm f/1.4 NIKKOR-S Auto (Introduced in '62), and I just got so used to it and it's narrowness over the years, that it probably re-shaped my whole way of looking at things on the streets.


A funny sidenote : the only horizontal photo here, I shot with a different camera - A Mamiya RB67 Pro-s medium format camera, which for her lens system, yet again, I also have only one lens - a 45mm (90mm in medium format proportions). So it's the same story - the circumstances "chose" for me my preferred way of taking photos. You'd might say that being cheap, or careful, with your equipment upgrates - can kind of confuse you about the "nature" of your tasteful choices.

And well... that's it. Hope you liked them. Until next time... good night, fellow photographers.

Not sure about pictures from Cyprus. Film isn't booming here very much, and most of the dev labs
aren't so recommended. But definitely more from the archive, atleast for now 🙃
