Rift Valley, northern Tanzania, while I’m busy flying for the Flying Medical Service mobile clinics, I always bring a couple of cameras. From a 1910 folding to digital Nikons via Rolleiflex and Leica M. I hope to use Karine's latest Contax 645 soon! The patient are usually Masai in that area.
This mountain is an active volcano, Oldoinyo Lengai seen from Ngaresero airstrip.
The volcano again from another airstrip, Engoveroni.
the medical hut, 2 rooms, quite a luxury.
The Cessna 206, a workhorse to compare with a Land Rover.
These pictures were shot the old way, that is on B/W film. This implies usually a very slow speed due to the dark infrared filter which explains the blurry people when in motion. In this case the Rollei IR 400 film in combination with a filter 89B was equivalent to a 6 asa film… I thus also used a tripod. The lens was a 28mm F:2.0 mounted on a Leica M6.
I rarely write responses, however i did some searching and wound up here Ben Wilhelmi: B/W infrared film photography, the bush in Tanzania. And I do have 2 questions for you if it's allright. Could it be just me or does it appear like some of these comments appear like they are coming from brain dead people? :-P And, if you are writing on other social sites, I would like to keep up with anything fresh you have to post. Would you list of the complete urls of your shared sites like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?
