The series Travel Photography was shot with Ihagee 6x9cm camera from 1920s. The camera has a simple frame viewfinder (broken and useless), focusing by distance meter, shutter speeds of 1/25, 1/50 and 1/100 only. All photos were taken without a tripod (mostly handheld, but sometimes I used garbage bins or whatever I could find for the support). Most pictures were taken on Scala film before it was discontinued, other - on TMax 400.
I have really enjoyed your 'Travel Photography' series. The images have been stunning, and this one in particular - pinsharp, great tonality and a very effective composition. You don't mention it, but I assume that your Ihagee camera, despite it's infirmities, must have pretty good glass.
The lens on my Ihagee is pretty sharp in the centre when aperture is 16 or 22. But you can see that two figures in the corner are not sharp while in focus (tey are not far from the ship). It was a sunny day and I could close the aperture that much and shoot from hand at 1/100. Usually I do not have that luxury of light and as the result most pictures are pretty soft and have lots of diffusion (which I like).
I've really enjoyed this series as well - individually and certainly together as a group they have a wonderful and undeniable thought process to them.
Maybe not even thought, just sheer creativity. I look at these and remember what it feels like to travel somewhere new and faraway.
