Leica Camera released a new iPad app named S-Magazine, is a new platform for professional photographers to freely publish their latest pictures. The S-Magazine presents current ad campaigns and editorial photo series from international photographers.

Beyond that, the S-Magazine reflects current trends in modern commercial photography – from fashion and beauty to interior design and still lifes. This essential guide for professional photographers and a great source of inspiration for me is available through iTunes. But first I have to get my hands on the next iPad to enjoy these nice publications.

Todd McLellan is a talented photographer from Canada who has a thing for photography and dissembling old mechanical machines. He shot a serie of various products like a camera, alarm clock, telephone and a typewriter.

Really amazing to see how many parts were used for just one product. And also, it’s almost all metal. I wonder how my Leica M3 will look like but I think I’ll leave it up to Todd to do it and hope he does so one time.

It’s good to have Len around all the time. Especially in combination with my Leica. They make a perfect couple to carry with you every day. when that finger starts to get itchy on the camera.

Here are a couple shots from random occasions though all taken with the same film. These photos were taken with a Leica M3 camera, 50mm Summicron lens, F2 wide open, Fuji Superia 200 and Ilford XP2 400 ISO film. And scanned with an Epson Perfection V500 scanner.

Go see.

Tumblr and it’s photography are awesome. I select the finest Tumblr photos which came across in my Tumblr dashboard and put them in a Cloud Cuckoo Photo Bliss.

Photo Bliss is a fine selection of inspiring photos found on Tumblr and here and there on the interwebs. Click on the photo to re-direct to the Cloud Cuckoo Tumblr post to reach to the source of the photo.

Here’s the 19th set in the Photo Bliss series. As always, do enjoy!

What a lovely day for some outdoor analog shooting with APC friends! A warm welcome to two new participants Hanke and Brian. Great to have them on the APC bandwagon. I am looking forward to see your analog photos.

It’s not easy to set a date in the Netherlands to do some outdoor shooting a couple weeks upfront the actual event. Lucky for us we had the perfect after summer weather. Jeff and Isabel had the idea to head for the woods to capture the autumn look. Splendid idea!

We had a nice stroll through the Kralingse Bos in Rotterdam and yeah, we shot some analog photos and I would like to share mine taken during APC no.6.

These were shot with a Leica M3 camera with a 50mm Summicron lens, Fuji Superia 200 & Ilford XP2 400 film. For some of the black and white photos I used a redscale filter. These photos appear to be a bit too constrasty but still pretty nice.

Oh man, I’m looking forward to APC no.7!

Wondering what the other APC members have shot? Have a peek in our Analog Photo Collective gallery. Want to see more of my photos? Visit my Flickr.

I had my Little Hamster Len in my rangefinder the other day while having lunch and showing off a Yardi bag and her Lennebelle Tassel bracelet when I had to shoot some more photos before the film could be developed.

These analog photos were taken with a Leica M3 camera, Summicron 50mm lens and Fuji Superia 800 film. The negatives were scanned with an Epson Perfection V500 scanner.

While we had Analog Photo Collective Meetup no.6 last weekend I find myself just finishing my APC no.5 photos.

Jeroen had the idea to have a meetup during the evening for some low-light photography. Great idea! Unfortunately I found out that my tripod gave up on me and I didn’t bring a remote shutter. So I prepared myself for some blurry shots and the result didn’t prove me wrong.

These were shot with a Leica M3 camera with a 50mm Summicron lens and Fuji Superia 800 film. I’m not too hyped over the film yet some shots turned out pretty nice.

Hope to share the APC no.6 photos soon!

I recently developed a roll of film with a lot of different happenings on it. One of them was the Wereld van Witte de With Festival in Rotterdam. Here are a couple analog photos from that event.

These photos were taken with a Leica M3 camera, Summicron 50mm lens and Fuji Superia 800 film. the negatives were scanned with the Epson Perfection V500.

Hope to post some more shots this weekend. Be good all.

Finally, my Lowlands 2011 photos are here. These photos where taken with a Leica M3 camera with a Leica 50mm Summicron lens. I used two kinds of film. Fuji Velvia 100 and Fuji Provia 100. I had the Provia 100 crossed during development.

I want to share a little selection with you guys because it took me so long to produce these scans. What are your thoughts? Do you like them? I pretty much do.

Looking back at the festival I wish I had taken more time to shoot good photos. Wandering on my own for a couple of hours just to get that one shot. Oh well, there is always a next Lowlands.

.

How cool! I spotted this guy at Lowlands with an Autobot and Decepticon Transformers logo on his calves.

I just had to make a photo of it.

See it in hi-res in my Flickr photostream.
