To sum up

This is my summer in photos. What happened from my point of view in this world in the meanwhile:

- Germany has won the football world cup for the fourth time in history

- Cornelius Gurlitt died, passing most of the artworks stolen by his father in Nazi time to the Museum of Fine Arts Bern, Switzerland

- There's still no solution for the conflict in the Ukraine

- Gaza and Israel is a seemingly endless problem

- The laureate of the Novel Peace Prize 2009 has decided to send troops to Irak

- Scotland could be able to declare independence tomorrow

Munich (Black/White)

A few photos I shot in my city on a black and white Ilford ISO 400 film when enjoying late fall and the beginning of Christmas time. 

I wish everybody a happy new year! 

Oh Toronto

Today is the "anniversary" so I felt like I should post some photos from last summer. Took a while to get the negatives.

I miss Toronto and my friends there. I want to eat panzerotti in Little Italy and ice cream from The Big Chill. Then I'd take the streetcar all the way down on College Street receiving a nice spring breeze through the open window and just enjoying the view. And later at night I'd get drunk on the patio.

"En s'éveillant, elle a couru à son sabot. Elle y a trouvé la pièce d'or. Elle ne sait pas ce que c'est qu'une pièce d'or. Elle n'en a jamais vu. Elle la cache bien vite dans sa poche comme si elle l'avait volée. Cependant elle sent que cela est bien à elle. Elle sait au fond du cœur d'où cela vient." Cosette, page 44.

I'd like to point out to my new little project: Polaroids by Carlos 
I'm going to post Polaroids here from time to time :) old and new ones taken by me!

I always wanted to see the eastcoast. Now it's time to make my wish come true.

PS. I'm getting a tattoo before this. Oh, shit, excitement in any way possible.

La campagne

Spending two days with a friend on the countryside is probably
 the most relaxing thing you can do.

No look at your phone or facebook, only knowing what's happening right there and then. Breathing fresh air and the feeling of a remote place.

Learning about the local culture and having a night out with traditional music was a great experience. 
Now I know that you can use maple syrup on more than your pancakes and I enriched my vocabulaire québecoise.

The first snow fell in the lower area of the province and this was probably my highlight.

Merci beaucoup à Mathieu et sa famille et amis!

Because I like fall and analogue photos

Shooting analogue is getting so expensive for me because of the costs for developing (plus not owning a darkroom or negative scanner here) but I managed to get some money together and here we have some results from my last film roll. There is another one waiting from August (time is passing by so fast!).

"If god has a masterplan that only he understands, I hope it's your eyes he's seeing through"

Some pictures I've found from last year and wanted to share with you. The pictures were taken basically everywhere I've been last year. Germany, Austria, Canada, Finland...

 

Everybody seems to get sad that summer is slowly ending. Toronto's summer was really great (not only because of constant 30°+) but now I'm looking forward to fall which I find the best change of season with all trees changing their colors and then finally losing their leaves. You can start wearing comfy cardigans and pullovers and finally I don't need to run around in shorts all the time. 

The pictures were taken with my analogue Nikon FG again. I love this camera!

I wanted to share some of the pictures from my last developed film roll with you!

They were all taken in July with my Nikon FG :)
