SuperErnie's photostream  

'Why?' I thought when my account was "marked as restricted" by flickr.
'Are they crazy? I never ever take pictures of naked sexy people, and I sure as hell never post them on my flickr stream.'
Yet, looking back, I did post some pictures from art fairs quite some time ago showing art works with nudity. I guess the flickr algorithms finally caught up with me. So now I had to change the settings and hopefully the dear flickritos and flickritas wil bring me back into the realm of the good and clean living people.

UPDATE: I'm back, got a very fast answer from flickr indeed.
'We appreciate you moderating the content in your photosteam. Your account has been marked as "public"/"safe".'

Anyway.

I just love analog and Polaroid photography

This is a little blurb book I did on teenage Justin Bieber fans

Ofcourse I have too much gear. It's never enough... Now I'm looking for a:

* Nikkon 24mm f/2 AI or AI-s lens for my F3

* Polaroid Image (Spectra) camera
I have one already but it's broken.

Would be nice:

* Black Ricoh GR1(s)

* Horizon 202

Make me an offer!

I promised myself to sell some stuff too. Get in touch with me if you'd like to know some more about these items:

* Voigtländer Color Skopar Classic 35 mm / F 2.5 lens
A very nice little lens for your Voigtlander or Leica M camera. Very good quality, super quick focusing. Chrome. I found out 35mm is not for me, I like 50mm and 24mm better.

* Nikkor-N 24 mm / F 2.8 lens
Great user, it looks kind of battered but who cares. It still works smoothly. Glass is clean. I decided to go for the F 2.0 instead, more expensive ofcourse...

* Nikkor 50 mm / F 1.4 lens
Just beautiful. But I really don't need two 50mm lenses for my F3. I got carried away.

* Konica Hexar Silver AF
Famously silent auto focus camera with a superb 35mm lens. I'm still hesitating if I want to sell this one. I like it a lot but I can't seem to get used to the auto focus and the 35mm focusing distance.



'Digital fotography is too easy. And when things get too easy people get sloppy. And sloppiness is not a good thing in photography. (...) And maybe [there's] not too much thinking behind it.' (Elliott Erwitt)

'Something that’s perfect doesn’t actually suit all people. It is like a computer game: if you win all the time, you start looking for a new game. Just winning is boring. It’s only because you can lose is what makes the game or winning fun. And with digital [photography] it’s kind of like everything is done for you and they all come out the same. So, to me, the game’s over when it’s perfect.' (André Bosman, Impossible Project)
