Hi Steve,
My name is TIbor Budai and I come from Switzerland. I have been reading your website for some time now and I wanted to congratulate you for creating a website rich of many articles, pictures and of course creating a strong community.
I have started doing photography for 2-3 years ago now and have taken the plunge with an M7 film camera equipped with a 35mm Zeiss. I like doing street photography, but also travel photography whenever I have a chance to do it and
lately I have also got involved in documentary photography within a local circus.
The pictures presented herewith are from a trip to Cuba. The first two pictures were taken during a stroll in central Havanna and the last picture taken at the Malecon along the sea where young crowds gather for taking a dive, getting away from the heat with
always keeping a bottle of rum nearby of course! 🙂 All pictures taken on B&W slide Agfa film.
Take care and keep up with this site!
Cheers,
Tibor
nice job fiam
I used to love that Agfa film and used it many times in the past -you must have good light though as it can be a bit murky in bad light but it is really beautiful when done right as you have shown -would like to see more pictures from each photographer displayed in the “Daily Inspiration” slot by the way – I will of course be checking out your Web Site. Can this film be got now ? Shows you that photography without film would all the poorer despite the wonderful digital technology we have now. Well done !

Hello Fergus,
Thanks for dropping by. You can still get Agfa Scala film purchased especially from German retailers. In tems of developping it, I send them to Germany. But I believe you also have some labs doing it in the US. Let me know by email if you need more specifically some addresses.
Cheers,
Tibor
Hi Tibor,

Thanks a lot Matthias for dropping by with your comments.

Tibor
Not bad tonal range in that Agfa slide film. I thought about trying it once but just never got around to using any.
Thanks everyone for the comments left. Always appreciated.
Thanks to you Steve as well for posting my topic.
Cheers,
Tibor
