about

This place is kind of a standalone exposition, or gallery, if you will, of my film and mobile photos. I regularly post my freshly discovered and scanned 35 mm pictures here.

I made a decision to show off my shots in a distinct website because of my utter reluctance to have small sized images on the Internet.

In third-party services they can not only be lost but also too small and too compressed for noticing small details and conversely they are stored in quite a good quality and dimension here.

my gear

For taking pictures on 35 mm film I use my lightweight and handy Soviet scale focusing camera Smena 8M and serviced rangefinder camera Zorki-4K together with the following lenses and accessories:

• Industar-50 3,5/50
• Jupiter-12 2,8/35 (1957)
• + yellow JS-17 filter as an option when I take B&W shots

For taking digital shots I use my iPhone 13 and longstanding DSLR camera Nikon D7000 with such typical lenses as:

• AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G
• AF-S Nikkor 16-85mm 3.5-5.6G
• + PL filter

fav films

• Rollei RPX 400
• Ilfold HP5 Plus 400

All the film photos placed here are without any post processing except for leveling the horizon and cropping some of them a little.
