Auschwitz Concentration Camp

2012-05-18T19:25:38Z

These photos were taken at Auschwitz Concentration Camp in Poland. It was a dark and gloomy day. It was the most sombre, profound, and emotionally moving travel experience. The plague above says, "Forever let this place be a cry of despair and a warning to humanity, where the Nazis murdered about one and a half million men, women, and children, mainly Jews from various countries of Europe."

I'll probably never go back, or want to go back for that matter, but I'll never forget that day.

I've always loved film photography, but I haven't got an SLR and I've always thought it would be very expensive to shoot film. I didn't like the idea of using a DSLR as I felt it's more of the camera doing the work than the photographer. A friend of mine gave his old Nikon FM to my 4 yr old daughter as a birthday present last month, it was really kind of him, He knew she loves to take pictures with my phone, so he decided to give this to her to let her explore the world through photography and everything that comes along doing it. I shared the camera with her(Adriana) and here's the results. These are taken with expired Agfa CT Precisa 100 using cross process, straight from the scanner with no crop or edit.

From my crazy europe trip one month ago. Santorini was beautiful beyond words.
Taken with a Nikon FM2, Fujifilm Velvia 100, and cross processed.

I have a ton of photos from this trip that I may or may not upload at my photo blog. Enjoy!

Ricoh SLR (unknown model), 35-70mm f/3.4 lens, fuji superia 400

we turned off the highway to get to this.."scenic outlook"

"Quick! Be a shy woodland animal!"

sydney: STOP STOP I SEE A BROOK STOP
jenwei: oops too late. wait what is the definition of a brook?
sydney: errrr moving water on a relatively flat surface?
jenwei: ok so if i pee on the road is it a brook?
mariel: DO IT.
in the end, we find another brook. as shown above

menacing, dark, etc

we find a frozen lake. signs say "do not trespass." we ignore.

general tomfoolery, including crawling around on the lake, results

Mount Rushmore, asian edition

Here are some shots from my recent trip to Vietnam.
Very interesting and different, but if you're looking for a relaxing holiday - skip it - especially Hanoi.
It is overwhelmingly frenetic and everyone seems to always be rushing off to somewhere.

For this trip it's my usual Hexar with only the humble, but capable VC 35mm/2.5 Color-Skopa.
Films used were a mixture of Provia, Velvia, Ekta and Fuji Pro 200.
I bought the Fuji Pro 200 in Hanoi, it cost about S$3 a roll. I'm glad I didn't bulk-buy it though.
I find it to be low-contrast, flat and far to grainy for ASA200.
It's also a major-pain to scan as it curls so badly that it goes into a roll.

This series is still a work in progress, too many rolls to scan with too little time.

Singapore, daily

We took a leap of faith and bought the camera- $3 for a camera that we didn't know if it could work at all.
Turns out that you cannot judge a camera by its price!
