TITLE: Grandmother
Canon EOS 33v, DIY Monocle lens, Foma 200, Developed in Rodinal. Scanned by Konica Minlota ScanDual IV.
Photo taken at 2006.03.20.
This is one of the first photos taken by just DIY Monocle. I was inspired by this lens in a workshop at the photography school where I studied. And I immediately got the idea to make it.
There is my grandmother on this photo. She is 85 years old there. She died in 2011 when she was 90.
She lived in Leningrad during the Blockade WW2. She had a long, difficult but interesting life.
I have created a lot of her portraits, but this one is my favorite. This photo shows her whole life, wisdom, fatigue in one shot for me. This is my dedication to grandma.
