Well, i noticed there was a photography section ^^'

It has been quite a long time since i've last updated it with fresh crunchy ones.

The ones on film are taken with an Olympus Xa (basically a 35mm fitted into a quite small pack), Superia xtra 400 (really handy).

Ohhhh, I really like the last one. It could use a little more foreground lighting though. For those kinda photographs, I like taking them with and without flash, to see what results better.

Yeah, to be honest those images are all taken up with a scanner from the printed copy of the photograph, the original pic is a little more clear (brighter shadows). On the other side the Xa has not a real way to control exposure except for adjusting ISO values and f stops. Let's say you have to trick the automatic light meter the way you need to achieve what you like.

Oh, I didn't realize it was a film camera and scanned pictures. That's pretty impressive then that the image looks that good through all the processing.
