Paris memories
Finally got around to developing and scanning the images from my and my girlfriend’s trip to Paris in late February 2020 right before coronavirus hit the world. Here are both the analog and digital photos from the trip. Most pictures are taken by me, some by my girlfriend.
Pictures below were taken with Olympus OM10 - 50mm F1.7 & 35mm F2 - Kodak Portra 400
Pictures taken with Fujifilm X-Pro 1 - 23mm F1.4
Scanning my first medium format negatives
For a while, I have been trying to learn how to scan my negatives. After picking up my first 120mm medium format camera, the Mamiya M645 with the 80mm F2.8 lens, I wanted to scan my negatives to get the most out of them.
For months I have tried to scan them with little to no luck. My flatbed scanner in the CanoScan 9000F Mark II. This scanner I got from finn.no for cheap (800NOK). I started with looking into software to this, which wasn’t as easy as it seemed like the original software from canon was impossible to download. So after a lot of google searching, I stumbled onto the software Vuescan. This seemed to be my saving grace, but the quality was shit if you ask me. I tried to scan as negatives in the software and positive to convert with negative lab pro in Adobe Lightroom. After trying this for several days, I couldn’t say I was too happy.
A couple of weeks later I decided to try scanning again after finding the software Silverfast. And this was finally the quality I was looking for. After a lot of twerking in the software, exporting to TIFF and editing in Lightroom.
Heres the results of early morning scans today.

ABGT350 and Prague
Back in late September of 2019, my buddy Jørgen, Espen and I finally got the chance to go to ABGT for the first time. I had the time of my life at these concerts we went to that weekend. Google “ABGT350” if you want to know more. At one of the concerts, I brought my point and shoot camera Olympus MJU 1. I also took some pictures with my FujiFilm X-PRO1 as well.
I want to highlight some of the photos I took, I was especially pleased with these ones. I absolutely love the reflections in the first pictures and the documentary-style in the other two.
These reflection! I love this shot!
Graffiti, looks like New York
