On Isolation, Solitude, and facing loneliness, a photo essay

Portra400 | Loners in Hong Kong | taken in 2017 - 2019

Isolation and solitude are very different concepts.  While isolation could be in form of restriction act by authorities as punishment, or by external force which in our case this long standing pandemic, solitude on the other hand is more an inward feeling and could be a choice that one embraces.  Learning how to practice solitude could help us coupe with extreme situations including what we are experiencing, an enforced isolation and loneliness in a very long period of time.

Nowadays people take mediation as an antidote against our materialistic world.  With overexposure of information and thanks to our advancement in technology we realise what promises to connect us is actually doing the opposite, leaving us in with emptiness and loneliness, and that is the way we are heading towards.  

Reading is one my favourite escape that requires being solitude, the ultimate way to practice voyage when travelling becomes hazardous to health.  It is how one could possibly stand out among others when everyone is getting information through internet or social media.  And good thing is, time used to be limited in our modern world but becomes relative abundant when there is a pandemic.

A café with one seaters might against economical norms.  When I was in Shanghai, my good friend took me to one of my favourite café in the world and they serve nothing more than coffee with a regular taste.  The only difference they made was to put a nose level monitoring device on wall that beeped whenever the interior noise level exceed certain Decibels.  They promised their customers a measurable level of silence.  

In architecture, we tend to design to encourage communication among users of the space and in other words making elimination of loneliness as architects' ultimate goal.  Openness is one of the long lasting trends in office and school design to promote collaboration, idea exchange and team work.  We were taught to believe an open plan with communal tables promotes efficiency and is far better than space of one’s own.  If one wants to make a private call there is always a soundproof phone booths in the corner of an open office.

The grand invention of 'learning from home' is one of the biggest challenge to parents in pandemic. Zoom meetings at 8:30am with teachers and pile of emails on homework promote not just bonding but also anxiety. Good thing is, I finally have more understanding on the school curriculum. While critical thinking and collaboration with others becomes essential survival skills in future when most of the jobs are not even been emerged, I begin to wonder the importance of teaching our children about the art of solitude, especially when isolation and loneliness are being promised.

The fair is a really interesting collection of the loudest design possible. I’ve stared at this image for a while trying to pick out what message to get out of it—obviously fish is being sold, but my mind jumps from each piece wildly before registering what to order. Obviously I went for the deep fried Oreo at the next stall. • Orange County Fair • Kodak Portra 400 • • • • #ocfair #orangecountyfair #fairfood #kodak #portra400 #shootfilm #orangecounty #deepfried #fairgrounds (at Orange County, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch6Gb_oLl6W/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Lower Queen Anne. Despite the rebranding it “Uptown” possibly by the developers to make the neighborhood sound more appealing, I have not yet met anyone who refers to Lower Queen Anne as the Uptown (even as the signs suggest it). #invisiblehour #Minolta #Apex #105 #APZ #35mm #film #filmphotography #istillshootfilm #filmsnotdead #filmisnotdead #portra400 #kodak #capitolhill206 #lqa #lowerqueenanne #timestamp (at Lower Queen Anne, Seattle)

Mon premier réflexe argentique: Le ZENIT EM

Après m’être essayé à la photographie argentique avec des point and shoots et mon intérêt grandissant, je me suis tournée vers un réflexe: le Zenit EM. C’est un modèle Russe paru dans les années 60. Ce modèle fit fureur à sa sortie de par son prix très abordable, faisant de ce boîtier un modèle emblématique de son époque. 

Cet appareil entièrement mécanique présente beaucoup de points positifs mais présente également des points moins positifs. Le Zenit EM tient une place spéciale dans mon coeur car c’est avec cet appareil que j’ai appréhendé les réglages de base et que j’ai vraiment commencé la photographie. Donc je vais essayer d’être le plus objective possible! 😉😉 Son premier atout est son objectif de base; l’Helios 😍. Celui qui est fourni avec l’appareil est un 44mm, équivalent d’un 50mm pour le capteur. Il ouvre à 2.8 et ferme à 16. Il est donc très lumineux et quand on s’en sert à diaphragme complètement ouvert, on voit un bokeh tournant auréoler le sujet. La profondeur de champs est très réduite et le flou qui entoure le sujet est super lumineux et rajoute un effet esthétique pour les portraits notamment!

Du fait que le boîtier soit entièrement mécanique, il fonctionne sans piles! Je trouve ça vraiment génial. J’aime beaucoup le charme de l’entièrement mécanique. Notamment pour la molette qui indique le nombre de poses exposées sur la pellicules. 

Autre petit charme, c’est la cellule au sélénium qui capte la lumière du soleil reçue par l’appareil et permet au posemètre d’indiquer les réglages nécessaires pour exposer correctement la photo. 

Cet aspect me permet de faire la transition vers les côtés négatifs que présente cet appareil. En effet, l’entièrement mécanique a ses failles; le posemètre se trouve en haut du boitier et non pas dans le viseur. On ne peut donc pas prendre la photo directement en faisant le cadre et en saisissant les réglages depuis le viseur. On est en fait obligé de quitter l’oeil du viseur pour saisir les réglages, régler la vitesse et l’ouverture du diaphragme puis prendre enfin la photo voulue. Bref! Pas idéal pour prendre des photos de rue...

Autre point négatif, c’est le viseur qui s’obscurcit quand on ferme le diaphragme. Quand on souhaite faire une mise au point au poil, le mieux est d’ouvrir à fond le diaphragme puis une fois la MAP faite, régler l’ouverture souhaitée pour prendre la photo. Ça ne facilite pas la tâche pour prendre une photo à la volée!

Pour finir, je vous parle du point le plus problématique de cet appareil, selon moi. C’est le système de rembobinage de la pelloche. J’ai suivi beaucoup de tutos et de sites expliquant comment désenclencher la pellicule puis la rembobiner car ce n’est pas si évident au départ. Puis même en saisissant la manoeuvre, il faut de la pratique pour y parvenir du premier coup! Entre temps, il m’est arrivé de casser la pellicule en forçant la molette... #drame 😭😭

En conclusion, c’est un appareil qui n’est pas forcément adapté à toutes les circonstances. Il présente des gros points positifs, comme son objectif qui est idéal pour les portraits par exemple. Moi, je l’apprécie beaucoup pour saisir la subtilité de la lumière d’une belle journée d’été. Mais le mode de prise de vue est plus posé, réfléchie. Pour moi, c’est une appareil qui s’adapte aux shootings planifiés et aux photos d’architectures. Mais il vaut carrément le coup de le tester 💜.

Je vous laisse quelques photos prises avec cet appareil.

[8/30] “Memphis All-Stars” — I spent a good chunk of time this summer in Memphis getting my life right with my “cousins”. Each one of these individuals brought so much life and inspiration to me at a time when I wanted to be far away from the hustle of the Valley. The amount of love, openness, camaraderie and encouragement I experienced day-to-day gave me deeper assurance that my own vision for community is not only possible, but that I already had everyone and everything I need to live out his vision. . From the booming sounds of @artistiklounge, to the Toozdy gatherings of the minds, to attending film premieres at the @thecltv in Orange Mound, to reminiscing about family with @cydeyes, to geeking out over Avengers: Endgame — Memphis was one of the places I needed to be this summer. So much soul. So much heart. So many good memories. So much Memphis. I love you all, cousins and I will be back again soon. #feelslikesummer19 . Shot on #Portra400 #35mmfilm #nikon. April 2019. . P.S. — If you are in our around Memphis this weekend, pull up to @creativeworks.co everso if the Spirit compels you.

A day no different than today. I went out this day because it had been raining off and on, and I was hoping for more rain and less sun, but had to find shelter (from the sun bc I avoid it as much as possible🤦‍♂️) under this palm when I noticed this angle. I just got lucky with that sunburst ✨ #portra400 (at Sherman Heights, San Diego) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxr9fKUnvMy/?igshid=y2vggvc0dguh

I always hesitate for a split second before stopping the car to take a picture -thinking if it’s worth it.. and most of the times it’s not. But I’d still much rather take the picture and throw it away later than regret not stopping for one. I have a couple of those from the last trip. My goal for the future is to miss as few shots as possible. Shoot first, think later! ✌🏼#leicam6 #35mm #filmphotography #kodak #portra400

i’ve been using #abeggsforever on the photos that i post of my family on my personal instagram account (@catherineabegg), and the hashtag got shadow-banned! at first i was all up in arms because i thought i was somehow reported, but now i think it’s possible that i used the hashtag too much so they temporarily blocked me... so here’s hoping! but also how can i not?! look at these cuties!!! abeggs’ forever and ever. #hasselblad #kodak #portra400 #film #catherineabeggphotography https://ift.tt/2RZvOpe

One of my favourite things to do when travelling is to simply observe. When you don't fully understand the languages being spoken around you, I feel like you are more tuned into reading people's expressions, feelings, moods. You're somehow less distracted. This little girl was amazing to watch. She couldn't possibly be expected to understand the concept of how old her surroundings were, but she was intent on exploring. Her way. We could learn a lot from this girl. 😎 .
