The employees of the garbage collection in Hamburg often see their city from another point of view. They know every single backyard and every secret corner. Now some of them tried to capture these points of view in photos, using dumpsters as larger-than-life pinhole cameras!

In my quest to find films everybody forgot about, I found the ALFO Professional Slide Film. Never really heard about that one, so I started my CSI engine. So this review is rather about the way one researches about the history of gone film-gems than the look of its emulsion.

This is how my Lomo-love began: It was a cold and rainy winters day in Hamburg, December 2010. Shopping was unsuccessful; I was annoyed of the weather... When suddenly I saw this glittering, sparkling golden treasure: A Lomo Fisheye One covered in golden glitter! You made my day, little Fisheye!

You are a dirty film, very dirty! Aren’t you ashamed of yourself? Exposing yourself blank in front of all those people? And look at all the grain in your face and on your body! I cannot leave you for a bit and really, I don’t want to!

This must be one of the craziest monochromatic emulsions I came across with. Not only the title is a promise of an adventure, but the pictures are as well. In most black and white films that I have used, objects in the distance become darker. With the Eagle, the darkness flies away. In fact, it's the other way around. The further the object is away from the lens, the brighter it is.

Some years ago, when I was still new to Lomography, I had some rolls of Fuji Superia 1600. In the best Lomo-manner, I didn't care about any rules and I shot them on a sunny day during my summer holidays.

Australian girl goes to Hamburg to hang out, and finds that fate brought her there for a reason. The story of girl finds camera. Or camera finds girl. In any case, a true love is born.

The Harbour/Port of Hamburg - a photo opportunity not to be missed!

In the early sixties, Astrid Kirchherr and friends regularly visited the Kaiserkeller Club in Hamburg to see a band that referred themselves to as the Beatles perform, not knowing they would one day become one of the most famous bands in the world. It was before Ringo Starr was even part of the group.

So here's my favourite spot for sunny days especially in spring: "Altes Land", an area alongside the Elbe River near Hamburg. It is the biggest, contiguous fruit orchard in Central Europe and really beautiful during apple and cherry blossom season.

The St. Pauli Elbe Tunnel also known as the old Elbe tunnel with its approx 425 meters long, tiled tunnels invites you to a journey into the past. Ever since a native of Hamburg showed me the tunnel, I have visited this impressive site on my visits to Hamburg for walking and shooting.

It's quite hard to imagine German music culture without Fettes Brot. After their big breakthrough in the early 90s with their well-known song "Nordish by Nature", they now play in the biggest halls in front of 12,000 fans with up to 90 gigs a year! Björn Beton fell in love with the Fisheye 2 and documented daily tour routine with his buddies Doktor Renz and König Boris.

I still remember the first time I've been to this precious city. I immediately fell in love with its beauty, its atmosphere, its buildings, and of course its shopping street. ;-)
-
"Frrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiischer Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisch, Leudddddddddde", "Schoooooooooooooooooooooooooookolade" and "Käääääääääääääääääääääässe ohne Ende". You don't have to understand a word, but you might get a feeling for the volume of the vendors at the fish market in Hamburg. It don't matter what you buy it is all about the experience of shopping.

It is a Great film, has nice blacks and whites, but the grey lacks a bit for my taste though.

Hence my favorite team is in the number one spot right now in Germany it is time to bury all the other teams. Let's start with the HSV in Hamburg one of the greatest teams in the German Bundesliga. And how lucky they are: They have there own cemetery to be buried on ;)

Hamburg, Landungsbrücken. Men with blue hats advertise the “Große Hafenrundfahrt” (harbour cruise). Their shouts ring in my ears while I make my way to the ferry pier. I don’t want to pay a lot of money for a harbour cruise when I can have one without stupid cock-and-bull stories.
