There's something about Frankfurt
I was in Frankfurt a few days ago and it is snowing like a son of a bitch. We arrived at 6:20 in the morning and we were expecting heavy snow and bad visibility but instead the weather is A ok. Surprising.
The sunrise was at about 820 am. Took my own sweet time to shower and unpacked. Prepared my cameras and as I was about to go out I figured, why not have a peek at the weather just in case... Bloody hell! It is snowing like all of a sudden the god of ice shitted an earth worth of ice on Frankfurt...well a bit overdramatic I know but it IS bad ok.
I then have to reschedule the outing. Eventually went out bout 2pm and guess what? Sunset is at 430. Not much light there I guess. Shot a roll of film that day. Yup you got it right, I shoot film sometime. It's a real curiosity. I have high regards toward the gods of film photography. Like mister Ansel Adam to name one. How on earth did he create those pictures? His comprehension of lightning and the relationship of aperture and exposure must be super good. Along the way, I saw 1 photography store and managed to find my measurement cup. Yay to me! Had my dinner after that and then went back to hibernate.
There's something about winter. The sight of snow all around. The cold. The damp. It is just pure romantic to me. The sight of 2 lover walking in the snow holding each other tightly...it is just screaming pure love to me. Those are my version of winter in my corrupted mind. It might not apply to you :)
Oh well that's my winter Frankfurt I guess. Danke!
