EXACT JELLY - an autumn / winter film

A tractor track through a snowdrift with a wall of bright autumn leaves. A wintry country road closed off by a corrugated iron facade. Tiny deer crossing a snowy field, camouflaged by autum textures. An upside-down FCKAFD sticker floating in the sky between the turbines of a wind farm, gently reminding us that the MAGA-, ICE- and Putin-loving German right-wing fascist party sucks and finally has to be verboten now.

Yes, it's double exposure time!

Above you can see two 35mm toy cameras. The spread-out one is/was a Jelly Cam, which I dismantled as far as I needed to assess whether I would even have the confidence to try to fix it. No, I don't have it.

At least it let me take a couple of last pictures on a long expired Kodak EPH P1600 film of unknown year of manufacture in October 2025. Yet since it got stuck half-way and I didn't know if the shutter had even worked so far, I used the film again in the Exacta camera in January 2026.

I still lost over a third of the potential 36+ frames. The rest is shown below.
Since both cameras wind(ed) the film into opposite directions the Jelly Cam pictures are upside-down - except for a couple where the autumn exposure was dominant or alone, which I turned around. 

That was today's plastic lens nerd talk. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!!!

PHOTOGRAPHY 2024 / 2025 : 35 mm

Last post looking back on my photography of the previous two years! I didn't shoot more 35mm than medium format films, but because there are three times as many frames in the smaller format, this selection is still a bit larger than the previous one.

It features pictures taken with Cypréa 2-way Cam (recognizable by the cropped "pseudorama" format), Holga 135BC, La Sardina (Belle Starr, Sapphire Serpent and Sea Pride) on old and new Kodak Ektachrome P1600x, Lomography Earl Grey Black & White 100, Lomochrome Color '92, Purple XR 100-400 and Turquoise XR 100-400 and Svema Foto 65 films.

There's actually one more film, which is in the laboratory right now, which might feature a couple of double exposures partly made last year (I had to remove the film from a broken camera and used it again in another one), but I'm not going to wait for that one, since it probaly rather counts for January 2026 anyway.
