We shot these pictures during our Norway-Roadtrip as we spend a night in an cosy AirBnb-cabin on a hill. Shot with Leica M5 and Summicron 40/2 loaded with old Orwo UN54 (developed with Rodinal). Lithprint on Orwo BN1. Limited Edition handmade Lithprints available on my website.
Few moments later, the first rays of the Sun began to stroke the ground and the fog started to say goodbye at the beginning of the day. (Large format camera Toyo 45A + lens Nikkor 90m f/8 SW + film Kodak Ektachrome E100 + 812 warming filter)
Woman don't have an easy life in Burkina Faso as they do almost all the daily hard work: they have to grind the grain, prepare the Karité butter, pump the water at the well and care about the kids and a lot of other tasks...

Bazaars are my favorite. Visited the Green Bazaar the first time in October and later earlier this month after a month long trip in the mountains of Tajikistan.
I had this project to shoot as many portraits as possible during my stay in Burkina Faso. The new Jupiter3+ lens was perfect for this project and mounted on the Canon P it gave me a great tool to realise it. To focus precisely at very close distance isn't always easy, specially at f1.5 to f2.8... For every portrait I tried to focus on the eyes of the people and saw on the results that the sharp focus was more on their ear.... that is around 8-10 cm difference. So I checked my Canon P and noticed that the rangefinder alignement wasn't perfect... This little distance plays no role when shooting at f5.6 or upwards, but at f1.5 to f2.8 and for under 1 meter distance it makes a difference. But even if some of the faces are a bit unsharp, the picture remains very soft and nice with a cool bokeh in the background. I finally fixed the alignement of the rangefinder and hope to get sharper pictures next time.

I was there alone that autumn morning. I was leaving the house deep in the dark. When I arrived at the place, I was in awe.
The coldness of the misty morning, the rising Sun and the rutting stags honking into the silence.
