Nick De Marco Posted September 29, 2008 Share #1 Posted September 29, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) I've seen many good and useful photos from other photographers there showing off some of the latest gear released at the fair, so this gallery doesn't attempt that, but tries to give a taste of the atmosphere of the show and the impressive architecture in which it is staged (as well as testing a couple of lenses). One funny thing I notices, zig-zagging between the highly professional exhibits of companies like Canon, Hassleblad and Leica, and the stunning model shows put on by Panosonic and Samsung, was that by far the 'coolest', most original exhibit was that put on by the makers of the cheap plastic Holga, with their laid back/punk atmosphere, funky photos, and cheeky "Analogue is the Future" banners. Unfortunately none of my photos were taken with a Holga (I left it at home) but their exhibit has inspired me to take it out more often. Please have a look at the whole gallery: From Photokina Photo Gallery by Nick De Marco at pbase.com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick De Marco Posted September 30, 2008 Author Share #6 Posted September 30, 2008 Many thanks for the comments guys. No. 1 is my favourite too. Had to take it quick, the second she saw me (when I pressed the shutter) she turned so her face was not on camera. Luckily the first shot worked. The large scale architecture, sunset light, and fact that her co-workers must have already left create a mood of emptiness I like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
