Mary Ellen Mark - The Lives Of Women

It is finally time to see this exhibition. I was waiting for this a couple of years ago and Covid hit and everything shut down. I love Mary Ellens work so I'm excited. 

Meet the Women Behind the Lens - Mary Ellen Marks. Like "Tiny" and her homeless friends from the streets of Seattle that Mark started following in 1983. Or the twins from her famous photo series "Twins". In the photo exhibition "Mary Ellen Mark: The Lives of Women" shown at Kulturhuset Stadsteatern in Stockholm and ends on January 30, 2023, the destinies of women from the past 50 years are depicted.

Welcome to Fotomässan – the leading Photofair in Stockholm December 2-4, 2022

Bring your camera and become a better photographer! The photo fair is for everyone who loves photography and image editing. During three days visitors get to experience a celebration of everything that has to do with photography. There will be inspiration, activities for everyone, photo exhibitions and product news. Meet experts, photographers and the largest companies in the industry and your new products. Whether you are a professional or an amateur who is just beginning to learn, the Photo Fair is for everyone! 

This fair will probably be a little too much technology for my taste, but if you have nothing to do, it might be a fun thing to visit next weekend held at Stockholmsmässan in Älvsjö, Stockholm 📸

Fomapan 400 - 35mm 36 Exposure 10-Pack

 

Today I ordered a 10 pack of Fomapan 400 Action which is a fast black and white 135-36 film that offers a good balance of sharpness, grain and resolution. Perfect for low light conditions and the cheapest film on the market. 

My plan is to start developing the film myself again since I don't have much money (crazy times now) and this film will make my shooting possible. 599 sek at Bruno's Bildverkstad (approx. 60 Eur) and it's really cheap for a 10-pack. Below you can see some youtube reviews on this film.

Test long exposures on your camera

 

If you're having a boring fall, my tip is to try long exposures and fall in love with your camera again. Use a flashlight or like me sparklers just for fun.

Here we go again - Olympus Mju 1

Cameras are my drug and I bought a super used camera today on an auction site for 10 EUR with the description = Color splashes are present on the camera body and the lens hood does not lock in the closed position. For that price I had to see if I can get the camera to work. He hadn't used it for 20 years so let's see when I get it next week.

Olympus Mju 1 is a good and fun compact camera that I should not have sold in the first place. 

Polaroid or Instax Square?

 

I have some old film that is expired. 2 packs of Polaroid 600 and also 2 packs of Instax Square and the big question is should I buy an Instax or a newer model of a Polaroid camera? I love square format pictures.

Got really inspired when I saw "99 Original" so don't miss watching it.

Instax mini - too small pictures

 

I quickly realized why my instax mini has not been used that much. The pictures are too small and I can almost only take close-ups. This camera is more of a party camera to take a fun portrait with, than do a project so I will rethink.
