Like most of us - there is this box with prints, proofs etc. Over the years stuff get stuck in it. Due to my limited mobility at the moment - "street" shooting" is not in the possibility. I lumber around with a walker or cane - trying to minimize jarring of the back.
Found this 4x6 test print, dating back to 2000, done for a story idea for the LHSA Viewfinder. Kind of liked it with the old Leica IIf and the Hektor 50mm f2.5 and a selection of HCB's books stacked up.
Most likely shot with a Leicaflex SL2 and the 100mm f2.8 Apo Macro Elmarit on PanF. Since 2000 there are several more books added of course

I took a bad fall at the end of November - a vertebrae in my back got dislocated and for the most of December I have been stuck in a chair, navigating at home with the help of the walker. Sitting at the computer is painful so I have resisted the temptation. Painkillers do help - mostly morphine which does clog up the brain a bit. I have had this problem before and it will go away - but it takes time.
Oh well. This has given me the chance to read a lot - mostly re-reading my collection of Mankell's "Wallander" series as I have the complete set in Swedish.
You also find that your friends are happy to do services for you, shuttling back and forth to hospital appointments, cooking gourmet meals for you,etc. and Tuulikki is keeping my spirits up too.
Cant wait to get back up in the darkroom either - film is piling up a bit.
Happy New Year to you all,
Tom
