Shot on a Bessa R2M with the 35mm f/2 Ultron and a mix of Fuji 100, Provia 100, and Portra 400.Developed at various labs in Tokyo and Osaka, scanned by myself.
I feel like this is the best /p/ thread of the year. Timeless, amazing photos. Darumas and BIC Camera are my favourites
>>4490892Sorry, it was Yodobashi Camera instead
>>4490881Really like the composition on this one.Loveley set OP, I can tell you really enjoyed yourself, such a wide breadth of pictures mate.
>>4490843Nice shots but you dont need to downscale so hard. You get 4mb and most of these are only 150~kb. Would love to see some more of the detail in these.
>>4490914>I want to pass your pics as my own OP, please ignore the rules furtherTranslated by Bing!
>>4490923>>4490779Everyone hates you
Comfy, thanks for sharing.
>>4490892>>4490893Thanks anon, Katsuoji was such a nice place to visit despite the influx of tourists. I also spent way too much time visiting every BIC and Yodabashi camera I could find to try and look for Superia Premium but with no luck. All I could get was Fuji 100.
>>4490903Had a tough time trying to compose and focus quick shots with a manual rangefinder especially since I couldn't frame up anything perfectly due to wearing glasses. Seeing the low-res previews provided by the labs in Japan I was pretty disappointed with the composition of my photos as I'm still getting used to 35mm but I used it as a learning experience and I'm pleased with the final results after coming home and scanning everything myself.
>>4490850I think this is my favorite of the set. The busyness of the shot works with the overall narrative, rather than against it as it does sometimes in the rest of the images. The old man, not many years left in him is reading a book, surrounded by paintings. All this old media, which in time will be completely forgotten, as he too will be, as the world moves on, increasingly digitized. It's an aesthetic shot, perhaps not the most visually impressive as a few of the other ones at face value, but paired with its context and subject matter, it is the strongest, imo.
