All with Fujinon 1:1.9 f=3.3 cm, lens removed from a Fujica Half 1.9 rangefinder, and A7M3. Despite being half frame it almost covers the FF sensor. It has neither focussing helicoid nor aperture, so f/1.9 is all it has to offer. Lens nicely tucked into an M50 helicoid.

After the Nelson Mandela bridge was declared structurally unsound and was thought to be in risk of crashing down upon a train station and motorway, it was closed off, deconstructed and the bridging sections replaced. It remains to be seen if the bridge, once voted one of the ugliest in The Netherlands, will be rebuilt in its original design or be replaced by something more appealing to the public.

33.1: Nelson Mandelabrug 2.0


33.2: Station entry gates


33.3: Round-up


33.4: Shine your light on me

I read about the bridge Paul, strange that such a relatively new construction is now already in such a bad state that it needs to be demolished. If I look at photo #33.1 the temporary construction does not ooze too much quality either. But I do like how you played with the vignette and sharp/unsharp zones in #33.2 and #33.3.

Nice work with that corrugated sheet metal building Leo, All three have something special.


For my 35's I'll try to finish my posting before the week is over, which should be doable since I went out monday with two lenses and today with the other three. So I have all the photo's I need, now it's just a matter of culling, selecting and processing which I did for the first one today

From a visit to the St. Fredegandus cemetery in Antwerp, the plan of the city is to slowly restore most of the old graves but they haven't gotten real far yet.

35-1: Decorated portrait on a headstone



35-2: Broken and faded



35-3: Small mausoleum



35-4: Rusty and mossy gate


All A7ii + Samyang FE 35/2.8

Design error, basically the structure was not designed to carry its own weight. I hope they replace it with something better looking, but I doubt it. There are two double train tracks, one with train station, and a motorway under the various bridge sections, replacing them all would have serious impact.
