anna from Vienna, Austria (me)Although we live far apart, we've been close friends for many years now. We don't meet often, but whenever we do we share a great time. I visited Anna last in April 2009 in Barcelona (a surprise visit for her birthday) and also wrote about my impressions of cycling in Barcelona on the shared BiCiNg bikes: Anna cycling in Barcelona. Moreover I also shot my first bike video in this fancy place (none have followed so far, but I plan to do one in Vienna too).
Anna from Barcelona, Spain
One of the best things about our last reunion was definitely the Tandeming on Anna's birthday. You can see a few pictures and read about all the fun we had if you follow this link. There is, however, another picture that I shot with my analogue medium format camera Diana (it's a lomo camera in case anybody is familiar with the concept) and which is still unknown to Anna. Since I don't use the camera very often it takes forever to finish and develop the films. Thus I only received this funny picture a few days ago:
From left to right: anna, Anna, anna and AnnaNote that the "doubling" effect is not due to Photoshop (boring) but due to a so-called Splitzer (a multiple imaging slicing accessory for the Diana) and a rearragement of ourselves. The quality could of course be better, but hey, it's just a fun camera. And we certainly had a lot of fun!

oooh :D
Thanks, for the words you wrote and the picture.
Have a great day! (not like the nasty storm and rain we have here this morning).
Cool pic! I think that I sometimes don't put pictures on the blog, because I don't think it looks as professional as other folks pictures. That's stupid. Waiting for perfection is a long wait. Through practice, I get better at taking those kinds of shots.
Nice that you can fit 4 people on that bike.
Just found your site today at work. So cool to be able to reach across continents!
I don't have a lot of pictures up- But you can check out where the Worlds G-20 summit was held last month.
Got to run it's 70F (I don't know the conversion to C- sorry)and sunny time to ride!
I love the dreamy effect of this picture. Do you find the Diana film difficult to develop? Are there no photo shops that can do it for you at a reasonable price; I certainly want to know because I have been eying the Diana in all its permutations for a while now. The new Dorothy Tang Diana is especially striking.
Cooool shot!
Analog photography is the only photography : )
Thanks for all the comments :).
@ Bronze Bombshell: I don't develop the films myself, I can bring them to a photo shop in Vienna. But there are not many that actually offer to develop medium format films, so you might want to that check out before you buy such a camera. It is of course more expensive to get them developed in a photo shop (still affordable though), but I don't have enough equipment to do that myself. Well, I also have a proper medium format camera, the Diana is really only for fun. It is not really possible to produce high quality pictures, but I think it's more about the feeling and fun anyhow :).
