No en la idea. No en la forma.
En el hilo.
Hay algo ahí, en esa resistencia mínima, que se parece a pensar. Re-ordenar ruido, re-ordenar ruido…

Winter bends the street - Maroseyka drifts softly through the morning light. ___ Another February frame from the same roll - Maroseyka stretching forward in a gentle winter bend, lined with lamps, old facades, and bundled figures moving through the cold. Cars glide along the wet pavement, pedestrians weave between patches of snow, and the street holds its familiar rhythm, a blend of history and everyday motion. Shot on expired Ilford HP5, the monochrome grain turns the scene into a quiet documentary fragment. Nothing dramatic happens here - just a winter morning on Maroseyka, a street that has carried centuries of footsteps and still feels alive in its understated way. _____ Technical details: Variations on a theme “...with a film across Moscow” Camera: Pentax MZ‑7 Lens: Takumar‑F 70–200mm ƒ4–5.6 Film: Ilford HP5 Plus 400 (exp. 08.2014), dev. Xtol Photo taken: 13/02/2018 Scanner: Noritsu LS‑1100 Location: Maroseyka Street, Moscow Street Maroseika - street in the Central Administrative District of Moscow. It passes from the Ilyinsky Gate to the Pokrovka street. The numbering of houses is from the Ilyinsky Gate Square. In addition to those mentioned, streets lead to the street: c odd, north side - B. Zlatoustinsky, and with even - B. Spasoglinischevsky and Petroverig.

Snow on quiet signs - Pokrovka keeps its rhythm in the winter light. A simple February moment on Pokrovka: snow on barrels, wrought‑iron awnings, a lone passerby, and the soft glow of shop signs half‑hidden by winter light. This street has its own rhythm - a mix of old Moscow charm and modern storefronts, where even the smallest details become part of the city’s quiet choreography. The snow softens the edges, the wet pavement reflects the day, and the scene turns into a small monochrome vignette of everyday life in the center of Moscow. Shot on expired Ilford HP5, the grain and contrast give the frame a gentle documentary feel - a winter sketch, nothing more, nothing less, but full of the atmosphere that makes Pokrovka what it is. ________ Technical details: Variations on a theme “...with a film across Moscow” Camera: Pentax MZ‑7 Lens: Takumar‑F 70–200mm ƒ4–5.6 Film: Ilford HP5 Plus 400 (exp. 08.2014), dev.

During Lockdown in 2020, I tried various photography challenges to keep the creative mojo flowing and combat the boredom of being confined to home. One of the challenges involved recreating a famous image. I chose Steichen’s portrait of Gloria Swanson (image on left). It’s a photo I’ve always loved and is a face framing black & White image of Swanson gazing intensely through a patterned piece of black net material. As luck would have it, I happened to have a black net tablecloth left over from Halloween. I wrapped my head in a dark towel to mimic her turban and chose a dark lipstick, some black eyeliner (inexpertly applied) and set about attempting my version. I used a large format camera (Intrepid 5x4 with a Nikkor-W 180mm lens) and some experimental New55PN BNW Instant film. It took me 4 or 5 attempts, using my rapidly dwindling (and expensive) stock of this film. Not the wisest choice perhaps but it was what I had to hand. I rarely take portraits, much less selfies and I underestimated how hard it would be to get the focus right. It’s definitely not a perfect image but I am really glad I tried it.
