  1. ^

    yeh i took a risk and bought one untested but in good condition. luckily the only problem was with the light seals, easy fix. and yeh It is a bit bulkier than im used to, but not too heavy.

    putting some superia through it now to see how it deals with colour. I'm liking it so far, cheers for the recommendation man.

  2. Anybody heard of Francisco Salamone before?

    Stumbled on his architecture at some photography exhibition showing some of Esteban Pastorino Diaz's work.

    The first image is one of the photos in the exhibition.

  3. engineered garments field parka in khaki metallic poplin:

    I'm not sure what this metallic poplin fabric is like.... it says 95% cotton and 5% metal ...

    do you think this color is a nice and versatile enough?

    I have this in navy, it's a nice jacket.

    Much prefer the field parka cut/style to that new storm parka.

    The fabric itself is really good at keeping rain out for something made from 95% cotton. and it deals with medium rain showers well, there's also really well thought out reinforcement stitching in various areas which you can't see in the pictures and the hood is cut really well (have owned a fair few parka's with terrible hoods)

    That being said, with use the fabric does have a tendency to become a little hairy/rough where there's only one layer due to the metal content. I don't find it a problem at all as it's outerwear and hardly notice it but I can see why shorts and this material are a bad idea.

  4. the clothes aren't good because they're just the same as you could get anywhere else except they dont fit.

    nope and that's how the cardigan is supposed to fit. the trousers also fit perfectly. keep up the hating though (0)

    the actual problem with ironman's fit is the beanie, bowtie, high water length and super cropped cardigan combo that's offputting and pushes it into the comical rather than steezy realm of things.

    Not sure if that fit was even serious or not??

    oh and nobody would even be giving that indirectdelete fit another glance if it weren't for that fucking sideshot of the bag.

  5. XA > XAx

    Yashica Electro 35 GSN - as sharp as Leica glass?

    Voightlander Bessa Rx - M mount to rival leica? more expensive than above

    cheeers

    yashica looks perfect. decent manual control, 30 second max shutter speed, aperture priority and a 1.7 lense. pretty much what i'm looking for. probably could do with being a bit smaller but that's not too much of a problem.

    I'd say you came on the wrong day...

    yehh the weather was pretty shit that day, you a local then?

    wasn't a total loss though, went to a few of the brighton photo biennial exhibitions that were going on and saw some gooood stuff.

    particularly the series on the architecture of Francisco Salamone. amazing eerie prints. best stuff i've seen all year.

  6. ^ well creepers do originate from england so it's not too surprising they'd be "on trend" here before other places (other than tokyo). especially considering the recent-ish boom of dm's.

    those fruity creepers above remind me of this verbal fit i liked, maybe the swag is clouding the resemblance to a dumpy hobbit. w/e it's dope.

    taken from some video that was linked on here ages ago. forgot which one.

  7. i kinda like that first one the other two are meh! i am wondering if we will start seeing a influx of creepers into western streetstyle? the japanese have been repping them hard for ages!

    although the first one is from Tokyo, the influx of creepers has already happened here, pretty much widespread in and around the east London area.

  8. sup sufu photo headz

    took a trip to brighton a while back, took a bunch of boringly composed shots.

    still waiting on a bloody blower brush to get rid of dust/fibres from scans.

    also i'm looking for a new camera, preferably a rangefinder any solid choices out there for someone on a small budget?

  9. no idea what either of you are saying

    zeheros fit looks weird with the jacket. and the color combo is pretty easy/cheesy

    funkyfresh looks good but wud look better with a haircut :0

    to clarify...

    Mass is having fun mixing "ass kiss" and "asking for a kiss" in one easy to use phrase.

  10. yea maybe proportions are weird/clashing or whatever. i like that tbh

    also its sitting around 66 degrees in Austin, Tx, and it sucks.

    to clarify...

    my main gripe with that fit was the tee, the wide low neck and length jsut looks wrong to me. makes your mid section look really really long.

    also the combination of grey "athletic" coloured sweats and black leather dr I can't get behind, nosynergy blah blah blah.

    the rick dunks however somehow manage to blend in for once in a fit.

    whatever anyway, you obviously like it like that so what i say is of no consequence at all. (statting the obvious blah blah blah)

    edit: jsut wanna add that it's cool that your shit isn't boring as fuck. waywt has picked up a bit recently.
