I’ve featured some shots taken using my Yashica-A TLR but I didn’t expect this. It exceeded my expectations, actually. And I am happy with the results.

I brought my TLR when I had my portrait session with Jonalee and Edgar and I seriously loved the photos that came out! I am still a bit shaky about shooting between f/11 to f/16 because it’s a bit hard for me to judge which should I use. I had a couple of frames that came out a bit dark but it didn’t ruin the beauty of that frame.

Well, except that there were light leaks as I didn’t properly wind the film. Oh well.

I got some 120-format black and white films and hopefully when the weather turns out better I’ll go out and use it.

Ever heard of Sunny-16?

Set your aperture to f16, and then set your shutter speed to the same as the ISO – if you shoot a T-MAX 100, set your shutter speed to 1/100 and so forth. If you take a photo of someone in the shadows, go for f11 or perhaps f8.

There is a lot of info on the sunny-16 on the net, make sure you read at least some

What if no one’s watching?

This nook is the culmination of a project that was postponed so many times after getting my first camera in 2004. I've consciously recognized my love for images and photography during that year, so, here it is. So, what if no one is watching? I scan my environment more carefully and take my time in breathing in the beauty that surrounds me, without worrying about other people's impressions or reactions. I hope you enjoy looking at my images the way I enjoyed the process of creating them.
