Nära (“Near”)

Nära (“Near”) is a series of close-up portraits of friends. They have all been made with my ЛОМО T-43 40mm f/4 lens—a surprisingly high quality glass triplet lens. They have also all been made at the same distance and depth of focus, in the 2:3 format of the Smena 8m camera the lens was original made for, with no cropping. This makes it possible to print them all in 1:1 scale, which is how I would at some time like to present them as a booklet or an exhibition.
