“Three Tourists as Three Temporary Versions of Light” (Fomapan 100) Light decided to test itself in human format and produced three temporary versions - one smiling, one thoughtful, and one simply sitting, because even light gets tired sometimes. The park observed the experiment, pretending nothing unusual was happening. The stringer came too close, and light grew slightly embarrassed - it wasn’t used to its temporary forms being photographed without prior notice. Still, it stayed: it enjoyed being a tourist, if only for a few seconds. Technical Details: Location: Petrovsky Boulevard, Moscow Camera: Zenit-35F (Lens: Minitar-1, ƒ/8, 1/125s) Film: Fomapan 100 Classic B&W (Expired 03/2007) Date: 11/06/2017 Scanner: Noritsu LS-1100 (#printbypro) Philosophy: “Light changes shape whenever it needs to remember it is alive.” Three gentlemen of Eastern descent sat on a bench. They had consumed a great deal of tea and swallowed a vast amount of space. Suddenly, a stringer popped up in front of them - as wide as an oak and two meters tall. In his paws was a tiny plastic box that made a soft "chick." One sage was mildly amused, the second stared right through the stringer into eternity, and the third raised his hand in a silent "hello." For back in their distant homeland, two-meter stringers run in packs, and every second one carries expired film. “A true street photographer knows: the moment your subject greets you with a wave and a smile, you cease to be the hunter and become a souvenir in their journey.”
