When I was exploring the area where I was shooting that day I noticed this detail from the old derlict stone fence from the old farmstead that used to be here. So I mounted my 135mm to crop in close and get good seperation of the background behind the subject.This image marks a special milestone in my photographic journey—my first capture with the Mamiya 645 Pro TL. It’s been a dream of mine to work with this camera, and seeing the results it produces on Rollei RPX 100 120 film feels incredibly rewarding. What makes this even more personal is that the entire process, from developing the film to scanning the final image, was done by me.
This intimate woodland scene of a small cascade speaks to the heart of what I love about photography—finding quiet moments in nature and bringing them to life in timeless black and white. This isn’t just an image; it’s a reflection of the effort, care, and passion that analog photography demands and rewards in equal measure.Stetinden rises like a colossal sentinel, its jagged peaks thrusting into the sky, a silent guardian of the land below. In this moment, the mountain feels timeless, an ancient force that has watched over the fjords and valleys for centuries, holding the secrets of Norway’s wild heart.
