diana mini black and white test.

yesterday I have spent the whole afternoon in my darkroom: I have developed the first roll taken with my new diana mini. I have printed 12 photographs out of 36 - the rest was mostly underexposed: the flash isn't as strong as I was expecting and a 400 iso film wasn't enough for the dark winter.

✻ I have chosen 6 prints to share here:

1) the snowy forest in Vuosaari - on saturday we went to visit our dear friend Kasia: we had a great time.
2) Kasia with her Horizon camera - the best panoramic camera ever.
3) a portrait of Jacopo - outside the beautiful cafe' Villa Ullas.
4) a portrait of Kasia.
5) an evening portrait of Jacopo - with falling snow in Kruununhaka.
6) a portrait of Tove.
overall I am pretty happy with these prints: I think they hold a proper diana mini feeling. next I am going to take a colour film test with a 800 iso instead.
