Dan the Physicist🐙

My name is Daniel, I am an experimental physicist who happens to really love film photography. I mainly use black and white film, but occasionally a colour roll of film happens to to find it's way into my camera.

@PapaShittyCams I have the 85mm f1.4, I love it, it is the most beautiful thing I own. I also have an RB67, medium format will change you.

@GeoStreber German engineering for you

Germany is suffering from extreme heat again. Up to 40 °C tomorrow. As a result, some concrete surfaces of the highways can crack like this and turn lethal. We need a speed limit sign for cases of heat (>30 °C), just like we already have one for when the road is wet.

@mrbwa1 @kimmiechem2 Do it do it do it!

@kimmiechem2 Hmmm… maybe I should get a 6x7 back for the Mamiya U someday 🤔

@GeoStreber You missed the obvious CDE

Which Linux desktop user interface should I go for on my new laptop? Obviously, i'd heavily modify either of them.

@willgudgeon @ILFORDPhoto Now this is a cool idea! Well done with the results!

@GeoStreber @CellsAreNeat Well yes

@Psycho8890 @CellsAreNeat That's why you have them in a 120K nitrogen stream when trying to SC-XRD them.

A crystal is exactly as good at healing you as it is at being a vacuum cleaner, so either I can start legally selling rose quartz chunks as vacuum cleaners, or people can't sell them for healing.

@PapaShittyCams @daquirifox I just tried to walk away and not think about it...

@daquirifox @PapaShittyCams I mean, if the camera was broken then fair. Rather someones art project than going into the bin.

@PapaShittyCams @daquirifox Seriously, what the fuck?

Another video! youtu.be/mUU-6FTBqF8

It is that time again my dudes! youtube.com/watch?v=6OpBYj…

@another240blog Oh dear this just gave me flash backs of my old Opel Corsa. That cable snapped so many times and at the worst locations.

22 years of friendship, life can just really kick you when you are down...

I can do math

This is my dear friend, I have known him for almost 24 years now. He is only 29 years old, but has bone cancer. It is terminal, I don't know what else more to say than that.

@ILFORDPhoto A photo of a dear friend of mine, shot on #ilfordphoto Kentmere 400 Such lovely grain. #fridayfavourites #grainlove

We want you to show us your grain for our #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites theme of #grainlove. Share your shots using the above #'s and tell us which ILFORD film you used.

There is something about this building that draws me, I'll have to go back to it with a telephoto and compose it without distractions #beliveinfilm #filmisnotdead #ilfordphoto
