In August I shot two rolls of film: one Kodak Portra 800 and one Kodak Ultramax 400. Both were shot on the M6—the roll of Portra with the Canon 35mm f/2.8 LTM, the roll of Ultramax with my then-new Voigtländer 35mm f/1.4 Nokton VM II (MC). Both were developed by my local lab and scanned at home with my Fujifilm X-E4, then converted in NLP.

The images were taken in Frankfurt at the Opernplatz, in our allotment garden, in Niddapark, and in the Odenwald region.
