invited guest: Skorj
I recently bought a book by the amazing japanese photographer Daido Moriyama and got very curious about japanese photography. My curiousity made me have a walk around the internet to see what I could find. Suddenly I found some breathtaking photos by a photographer named Skorj. I'm very delighted to be able to present them to you.

"Life is about the feelings we take from being. Photography is a combination of our memories and the tools we use. Finding the right tool to represent the memories is difficult sometimes. Sometimes the tool overrides the memory. I try and use my camera & film to represent the memories, the feelings, what I had from being there... Not the memories of the equipment, but the memories from me, the memories of a life in Japan.
The lonely windswept castle, the radio-tower dreams of modernity, the mists covering a mystical lake, the proud oba-san and motorman with his 1950s machine.
This work was taken with a 1975 Polaroid 195, and Type-665
negative film cleared in the field with mugi-cha.

Oh, this is fabulous! All the pictures, and the "filmwasters" too, are a delight! Thanks for sharing.
Far from what I am doing but wonderful! Strange and beautiful. I must see more of your work!
Cleared with mugi-cha, eh? Seems to be a great way to produce something quite unique.
