A waterball with Germany's national flag colours, one of these football targets you can buy at every store this time and an enthusiastic boy make this small picture series ... "Watch out, I'm as good as a real goal-keeper! You will never score against ME!!!" Of course, I've left him with his illusion ... |

The theorem stipulates: if many photographers gather at the same event/ location, the quality of each single capture of that scene goes down. On the other hand, if you, as a photographer, are alone at a location and have the feeling you are the only one here and now to capture this unique setup, you pictures get a certain touch of inspiration.
I got in touch with that theorem, as I went to the Oktoberfest recently. After a family vacation with no opportunity for photograhs, I begged my wife for an evening off duty to go to the Oktoberfest to take some pictures with my Lomo LC-A there. But when I came to the "Wiesn", the fairground, my inspiration let me down. I saw a lot of photographers with digital SLR cameras using anti-shake/ image stabilised lenses or tripods, taking a lot of effort to capture the scenes well composed and technically perfect and of course, not to be unfair, focussing on the right photogenic subjects. I had the feeling all the good things have been photographed away.
Then my film advance hooked up and I was not sure about the right transport, opening the back of the camera and and and...
In summary, it was a bad evening ...
I brought my films (agfa precisa ct 100 slide film, partly with double exposures and overexposures/ light leaks due to the opening of the back) and an agfa vista 100 negative film to the lab and with a feeling, nothing can be worth from now on I get them both crossprocessed and pushed to 400 ISO. At least some of the captures gave me a bit of contentment back. But all the photos are not really inspired, which does not detain me from posting some of the results anyway :-)

Photo shops and laboratories shutting down services ...
…read moreToday I deleted all my photos from flickr and posted a kind of goodbye. My flickr pro-account expires next monday and I will not prolong it. You may guess ... because of the censr/filtr incident (but moreover the annoying non-communication/non-reaction of the flickr staff/ management). Although it will take me some time to establish a similar network here at ipernity, to pay only to get ignored by flickr staff/management with my concerns pushed me out.
May the ipernity community grow and the staff/management communicate better than I experienced before...
Cheers, Albrecht
