Tmax | shashank uchil

Rockin, coffee, ICA, sushi and 100/2.8

another roll of tmax, this time with the om2 + 35-70/4. Chose the om2 and set it to aperture priority as i would have to zoom with the lens. I am not good at multitasking when it comes to cameras, hence all the prime lenses. This roll turned out better than the earlier one…even though its pushed by 2 stops and shot with an average lens…i love my lab.

outside ICA

trying the zuiko 100/2.8 on the 5D. I did not want to splurge money on a ef 100/2, so i bought this adapter that lets me use my zuiko lenses with the 5d. The lens is fantastic, even at 2.8 and renders quite differently from the ef lenses. Or maybe its all placebo.

…so did my trip to India…after 4 weeks it was time to head back to Oslo. Was it perfect…not it was not…but what is? like i said in my earlier post…nothing is simple…but thats how life is…at least mine. Mom tells me thats how it has always been for my sis and me…things have never come easy to us…has always been a struggle. Strangely though i am not complaining anymore…guess i have come to accept it. Accept it and move on…and keep mind that the only constant in life is change.

Its 11:00 at night and i got a call from a friend to go out for some drinks…and for the first time since i got to norway i said NO. Dont know why…guess i am at peace and am tired of trying…maybe a bit too hard. Its a bit sad that i have given up on Oslo…but even i have my limits and i am pretty must at the end of it. Good thing is i am much relaxed now. Made some more prawns for dinner…will make some chicken tomorrow.

I have been reading Salman Rushdie’s “Midnight Childen”…initially i was really pissed of with the book but with some time now i am enjoying it…his style of writing is quite different. Not very easy but quite engaging. Must thank suri for recommending me the book.
