I dream in Pano

Yesterday I took a walk with Lazar(from RFF\D-Spot) and I shot two rolls of film with
his horizont(205?).




This is a pro quality tool designed especially to take pictures of my fingers.



It is an interesting tool for street photograpy.
It is very handholdable,it's distorsion is usefull and it is very handholdable.




The bad side is - the build quality is low,assembly is sloppy and it is overpriced.
I would like to try finding a metal seventies one.









Due to our student strike(they protest the goverment's blatant disregard of the
conclusion reached by a GOVERMENT apointed commity to reform higher education and raise
tuition).They protest all over the country including our neck of the woods(which is an important
university town).Shot a couple of heated arguments with the yashicamat.

first developed film from the canon

and fourth shot.Two bw in fridge(I don't have neg sleeves) and one slide sent of today.











shot today,fuji proplus II iso 100,guess exposures(1/250 f11 sun,f4 shadow). I can say I am pleased.
The filter doesn't vignette and focus seems right(but I didn't shoot wide open).
I am more then happy about the flare resistance.
What I don't like - the lens is to damn light - the camera tilts back on it's strap.

watched "Tideland". I didn't like it.Feels like it is meant to shock with no additional value.

This country is falling appart

Sometimes I feel like this country falling apart. Where is field commander Cohen to soothe us?


Found objects on the outskirt of Kibbutz Saad(socialist religiost kibbutz)



I think the john deree tractor(and even more so the Fergusson) is a symbol of Zionism as much as a Singer sewing machine is a Judaica item.



Some migrant working(Thai,chainese,phillipino,romanian?) cowboy left his boots and hat

kittens

It is intresting to watch group interaction in kids, but since I dislike human children(to damn loud)I prefer animals.


Whaaat?


The cautios supporter.


We are having a heat wave(42 degree celsius with sandy wind) which kills me.
I am bummed by the major car maintanance I have to pay for soon(100K Kilometers).

Got two long rolls(30.5m) of TRIX(new to me) and PLUSX. I am more or less set for BW film for the next year. Now I just need sleeves.

I watched several movies(בתי קפה,הכלה הסורית) nothing to write home about.
