ROMA

 

For my birthday in February Tatjana and I flew to Rome.
The Italian capital has become one of my favourite cities.

Originally we wanted to drive to Venice, Bologna and Rome
with my camper van, but due to the cold and rainy weather
we went to Rome by plane and stayed in an airbnb close to
Piazza Navona.

I just used my Leica Camera filled with very old (expired 1987)
Ilford Film and the city was enveloped in a blanket of white
snow when we walked along the Tiber.

We enjoyed the winter sun, had the best amatriciana pasta
and visited the Galleria Borghese.

It was a wonderful 5 day getaway trip and the best birthday.

i went to a small photo store called foto tuskanac in zagreb and got a roll of film developed and scanned. the pictures were taken with my olympus mju ii. i lost the little window that is in the back of the camera letting you see the kind of film that is inside. so i wanted to make sure there are no light leaks and everything works.

there are a lot of fingerprints on the roll of negatives and the scans are horrible, nevertheless i really like the idea of using cheap film in the olympus and getting it developed along the way. i will also portrait the people working the minilabs. this time a fuji frontier 550.
