Rollei 35 - one year

[petronius]

Guy, thanks a lot for your feedback!
Archiver, I will have to think about your question before I can put it in words.
Maybe this interview will give you a first answer.

Zeno, you make the best pictures of nothing of anyone I know.
kind regards,

Lynn, thanks a lot for your kind words! The nothing is always there and moves little!

Beautiful work Petronius. I just looked at your Tumblr bog. Your style is very inspirational to me!

Thank you!

This thread must be longest lasting solo film project I have seen these days!

wow I just found this. as a fellow Rollei 35 enthusiast, I'm stoked to see this amazing catalog and dedication to a wonderful device.

that cloud shot with the bird in the bottom left is really something.

Thank you! I´ve been quite stunned by your picture of the stairs with all the cables and pipes above! Go on with your good work!

Nine years into my project and the Rollei still rocks!

The mountain in the background is the Kösseine, the most prominent mountain in my area. I have nearly 1000 photos of it (beginning in August 1999, when I moved here) which makes it a second addiction beside my Rollei 35.

 

[Guy Pinhas]

Great stuff man, I repeat myself, but it's really inspiring!!! Will you be working on a second book?

 

[Moto-Uno]

^^ Well "Petronius" if that mountain has your attention , you should visit British Columbia 🙂 . Peter

Guy, I have no problem to read your repetitions! I am working on a new book with a working title "500 pictures from 500 rolls", which is some work. Stay tuned!

Peter, I´m sure BC has mountains of eye candy, but I decided to work with the stuff I have at hand;-)

Seriously spoken I´m a big fan of ukiyo-e landscape series and wanted to emulate this concept. It´s work in progress.

 

[Guy Pinhas]

Sounds like an insane project but a very interesting one. Keep us updated please.
