25 Μαυ 2008, Tibetan Olympics Gran Finale, On Film









































Οne of the things i like about telling stories with photography is that i don't have to say a lot of words. It seems that i got overloaded by editing the photos all these days, no words come at the moment to write down. I also have to aknowledge that i'm posting more pictures than i would normally. That is because i hope that the participants, athletes and volunteers, of the games will have the chance to see them here. In the future i will be taking some of these pictures out, in order for the story telling to be more clear. The photos i'm posting today are shot on colour negative film, with a Nikon F5 camera and a 24mm, a 28-35mm and a 100mm lenses. My digital camera at the time, was so used and updated that it didn't allowed me to take good resolution pictures at any time i wished. That means it was jamming a lot so i had to carry my film camera with me. That also means that when i returned home i had to develop the films (the black and white films on my own), then scan each one of the pictures on the film to the computer and then edit them. This in some part explains why a lot of these pictures weren't edited and shown before. Now i feel very happy to have completed this story, it feels like i have experienced again this amazing event, like i've been once more around those wonderful people, like i have just won a race.
