To test my new La Sardina camera, I went to a park downstream of the Eure river, a former industrial site transformed into a promenade for families and sports enthusiasts. I couldn't wait to see what would come out of it.
Well, the images are VERY far from being sharp, and I can't figure out how to "adjust" the lens: too close the background is foggy, too far away it's foggy in front AND in background... Not to mention the distortions on the angles, and almost omnipresent flare (even with the sun at your back!). I have rarely taken such lo-fi photos! However, the result is interesting, there is a dreamlike, floating, elusive atmosphere. I will have to try with color film to find out more.
