Tibetan monks in Dharamsala, Himachal Pradesh, India, reading from old books in the Tibetan script. Maybe books that they smuggled out of Tibet after the Chinese takeover.</p> <p>One of the things that always put me off was a very unfortunate tendency by my Nikon F100 to leave a scratch across the film - a slender straight black line caused by the film being pulled across some piece of grit on the pressure plate. I can get rid of it with a bit of work, but I&rsquo;d always just move on. Now it maybe seems like part of the nostalgia for these pictures.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2021-10-02-a-latergram-of-an-indian/ Sat, 02 Oct 2021 13:17:00 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2021-10-02-a-latergram-of-an-indian/ <p>A #latergram of an Indian takeaway feast in the Jozi home of our dear friends <a href="https://instagram.com/sophdex">@sophdex</a> and <a href="https://instagram.com/ezlemoen">@ezlemoen</a> with parents, Jill and Pierre, and collies, airedales, and cats. Johannesburg doesn&rsquo;t look nearly as welcoming in spring compared to summer. But get indoors and the citizens (not just our friends) are as friendly as ever.</p> <p>Shooting scenes like this in available darkness is a big part of what makes having a fast wide-angle lens such a pleasure.</p>
