we tack in style vol. three

and now back to the “black and white business” as mister Bernard once said. tri-x 400 not pushed for a change, the FM and the nikkor 35/2. the following are so mediocre that i also included one or two with light leaks! yeah.

one of the first days (i’ve totally lost the counting and sequence of things) we stayed a whole day in gidaki beach. i think it was the first day we went to Ithaca island. beautiful place.

theodore.

after many many hours of practically being in an absurd decomposition phase we realized we have to get things moving and go dock in a port cause the weather was to get ugly.

Ithaca!

anastasia. you can.

maria.

spyros.

next day we went to frikes, an other place in ithaca.

oh yeah, we met an english girl there. nice lady.

nails.

the last frames are from a third place we stayed in ithaca, kioni. awesomeness.

cleaning dishes an stuff.

spyros caught an octopus. sweet.

the official dingy-boy of the year.

light leaks!

we tack in style vol. two

For the ones that remember, we have a little thing going on annually here. the idea is that no matter what, me and some friends will gather once per year on a sailing boat and scan the ionian sea. of course such things do not happen and so the we-won’t-miss-a-year an’ all actually lasted for like two times for the most of us. since then the people composition is changing but somehow we kept the tradition. by the time we left patras to go to lefkada and get the boat out in the open, I had the M for like two weeks. I know this baby is rumored to be a tank and everything but water is water. and its deep. I took the FM instead. this first roll is of course with the nikkor 35mm/f2 and a humble fuji superia 100.

the interesting about this year was the fact that we stayed out of the usual paths. instead of big ass islands we spent most of the time on deserted stuff like Arkoudi, Atokos, Kalamos and so on. these places actually turned out to be wonderful.

anastasia.

this is Atokos, my new old time +fav place. with little imagination you’ll see antony, koukou and harry trying to climb and jump from that rock.

trust me this thing is bigger than it looks.

antony.

spyros with the sailors beard.

sexy portrait of harry.

maybe more sexy.

harry (v.2) and maria.

spyros rollin’.

and now shots from awesome Kalamos.

another sexy portrait of harry.

and another!

da crew.

and at last a post-cart with lame composition. yay.

trizonia chronicles day one

this is actually the first roll I shot in trizonia island. don’t ask why I posted the whole thing bit weirdly. I was in black & white mood the other day i guess. anyway, leica M7, nokton CV 35/1.4, superia 100.

at chris’ house, getting our stuff ready.

aggeliki was there too.

stelios following us with the killer look.

supplies.

FIRST SELFEMOPORTRAIT WITH THE LEICA! (also out of focus)

on the way.

waiting the little fishing boat to get us to the island.

on the boat.

anna-maria cleaning things up.

and also aggeliki cleaning things up.

we, by nature, always prefer to stay chilled.

 

sunset lighting.

view from the house.

and out of focus candid photographs.

there’s the moon asking to stay

now I know that a certain someone will be kinda smiling seeing this title on the post. yes, jeff turned to be addictive indeed. In geeky news, i just purchased the pro account on flickr. it’s 24$ for plain air but what the heck. the following frames are with the M7 (i’m dying) and the nokton 35/1.4. since these are mixed frames from many rolls I can’t really say the types. mostly i’d say trix and tmax. chris invited us to his getaway destination in trizonia island, a tiny thingy about an hour far from patras. i din’t even know existing.

stelios and chris’ d80.

chris.

panos and marry being alone.

panos and marry being with the crowd.

stelios making a suffle for us. being a student among students and eat suffle is a big deal, im telling ya.

panos and marry thinking they’re alone.

aggelinki as joker.

again in a cutter version.

stelios, bored, boring.

nick and anna-maria.

harry also joined us the next day. maybe my favorite frame from the whole trip.

nick as intelectuel smoker.

harry again. (i think from now on it’s tmax)

s-s-stelios.

chris looking awfully like da’s crazytob.

harry lecturing about magic tricks.

blah blah.

alessandra.

and anna-maria with the nick-stop-talking-about-your-ex-while-im-here look.

next post have the exact same stuff but with color. yes, i was so inspired that i shot 3-4 almost identical rolls.
