School assignment no. 4 – Remember the Fallen

This is my fourth school assignment. The theme of this assignment is ‘fear’.

Rather than capturing facial expressions of fear, I chose a more poetic, more consequential approach. I decided to photograph our annual Remembrance Day.

Most wars are based on an underlying sense of fear. As a consequence of Hitlers fears about 70 years ago, we’re still honouring our fallen on the 4th of may.

I hope you like it. Any feedback is, as usual, much appreciated!

Oldskool photography


This is the first time in years I shot some images on film. I recently bought a Vivitar 35ES rangefinder and these pictures are the result of it’s first test run. It is really awkward to shoot film again. I have to admit that I’m a bit lazy when it comes to aligning horizontal lines correctly while shooting. It’s a lot easier to straighten photos in Lightroom. It’s a bad idea to do this while shooting film though, as you can see on the photos.

Anyway, I really enjoy this little camera. And shooting film is fun too. There is a downside though. I’m really (unpleasantly) surprised by the cost of developing film and printing the photos. I’ll have to find a solution for this if I want to continue to shoot on film.

Well, enough with the talking. Check out the photos after the jump. I used Ilford Delta 400 for these photos if anyone cares ;)
