Title: Bahnstadt Heidelberg
Post by: imagesfrugales on July 28, 2016, 11:00:17 AM

The "Bahnstadt" is a new quarter in Heidelberg, just a few meters away from the main station, built on abandoned railway ground. It will be the biggest passive house estate worlwide when finished in maybe 2 years. The rents are quite high, but you can get governmental subsidy if your incame is low.

Taken with Pentacon Six, 80 mm Biometar and handheld wide-angle device, making a semi-fisheye. Unknown very old 120 format film "Panfilm", maybe from the 60s(?), developed in Rodinal + Vit-C.

Colors are random artefacts from the scanning and editing process.

This tryptich is from the end of the roll which was obviously the best preserved part of the film.

I love the accidental colors! The whole thing looks quite post apocalyptic (especially the first one)

Very psychedelic!  That second one looks like it could be an album cover, just put the band on that bench looking off in different directions.

Thank you for the kind comments. I made some artwork for a couple of musicians, that's a cool idea.

I'm quite happy with the results, I didn`t think I could get something usable at all from this 50+(?) years old film, but it was the last in 120 format at hand, a new delivery is delayed.
