…kind of like “One Night in Bangkok”.
Except that it wasn’t night…it was day.
And also not Bangkok.
(…oh and also probably two days, but who’s counting)
(FYI–the distinguished gentleman featured prominently in the photo above is a friend of mine, who had his work featured at the restaurant in question).
…and to everyone else acting in a father-like capacity.

Of course, if you were having a massive three-person birthday dance party (complete with stage smoke and disco balls) you would shoot it on film, with a flash.
Mind you, focusing would be somewhat hard…and everyone would be relatively blind.
Most of these were taken on my top-secret new-old lens (Summicron 90mm Pre-Asph E55) which I had once but wrongly sold, bought again but then returned (mis-calibrated) and finally managed to find again in good condition at a reasonable deal…just CLA’d by Leica and “Optimized for Digital” nonetheless! (whatever that means…)
So I shot it on film.  😂
HP5+ pushed to ISO 800 and developed in D76.
Found a half-shot roll from the summer sitting in the F100, and finished it today.
The first 8 are on Kodak Gold, shot on the MP. Â The next 17 are on Agfa Vista 200 from the F100 (as an aside, the 50/1.4G is hugely underrated on film) and Agfa Vista 200 just might be my “forever desert island outside film”–too bad it too has been discontinued.
Anyway, if you hadn’t already done the math, the title refers to the galaxies apart that the summer and the winter now seem…
…of 2019!!

This is a big one…also featured on The Analog Vacation. Â A mix of Superia 400, Vista 200, and Kodak (Gold?) 200. Â I hope you enjoy…
