Urban shots

I developed and scanned a black and white film this week, and here are some samples.

Who said you need a good camera?

Out and about, listening to Boban I Marko Markovic Orchestra, and with just a 3.2MP camera at hand. So? Here is one out of three drummers! They are an amazing band!

Clay poetry and street agony

Two very different images... One full of life, creation, movement: the potter's hands giving shape to clay. Another void of pleasure, agonizing, searching for answers: a masked woman's portrait, with the subscript "I 'm in agony...".



Oddly enough, a few days later I found the same message again, on a different wall ( this one is slightly shaken... )

A winged friend...

...came to my balcony.


Poor bee was at the end of her life, I found her the next morning still there. Click on the picture to enlarge it.

A walk through Athens

Street photography has a special place in my heart. I like walking around the city and snapping any kind of image that stimulates my mind. Here are a few examples, from a Fujifilm Velvia 50, which gives very saturated and vibrant colours.

Vibrant reds agains the blackened buildings

The Acropolis Museum

A couple of pictures from the new Acropolis Museum ( outside, it is not allowed to snap inside ). Reflections coming up...
