RICHO 500G film
I have been looking for a pocket film camera for two years and this Japanese film camera was my birthday wish. Since forever I have loved using film, I used to develop it myself in a dark room and experience the whole process.

My thoughts about film photography -
It means being in the moment.

When the click happens, when it's like standing and holding your breath for a moment of magic is being captured. So many things happen around the frame, coming in and going out of that frame, but there is that one moment when you decide to tap your finger on the clicker. That's being in the moment. There's no scrolling, you can’t see the outcome immediately. In fact, it's not about the outcome. It’s about the moment you want to stay in forever.

It’s not about the finale
It’s not about the image or the print
It’s about
The process,
The road,
The walking,
The movement,
That holding the breath,
The click.
