hasselblad test 03.

last sunday I woke up very early and convinced Jacopo to go out despite the freezing temperature: I wanted to walk around Seurasaari to take one more test roll with my Hasselblad. if only I knew back then that the light trap foil on the magazine was damaged I wouldn't have wasted another film roll - I should have developed just one before taking more.
Hasselblad test 03:

Kodak Portra 160 - Seurasaari.
I hand't been to Seurasaari for a while and the landscape covered in fresh snow was beautiful - I was so happy about the photographs I took and that is probably why I was disappointed the most about this roll being ruined by the light leak. it is such a pity I could only save these tiny circles from 8 images out of 12.
✻ ✻ ✻
after these three disappointing test rolls it is about time to announce that my Hasselblad has finally been fixed yesterday - thanks to Jacopo who has found a new light trap foil in Helsinki.
oh joy! I trust that there won't be any more light leaks from now on!

  1. in ogni caso rimangono degli scatti suggestivi e poi il modo in cui li hai impaginati qui li fa sembrare una collezione di vinili preziosi avvolti nella carta velina :)
