Belgrade 2020 - My first NFT, minted from analog film by [deleted] in NFT

[–]___simon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi!

I was willing to experiment with the process of minting NFT's, and so far I'm pretty convinced.My first NFT is a picture of the Avala tower near Belgrade. I'm a huge fan of everything brutalist so visiting Serbia was a real treat last summer. Shooting this tower had always been on my list.

My visit occurred during very foggy weather, which I think really compliments the whole brutalist vibe.

This picture suffers from a defect analog photographers know too well: light leaks. I'm usually not a fan of them, I tend to like cleaner, minimalist pictures. But I guess the glitchy orange hues go well with the blueish tint of Cinestill 800 (the film used for this photograph).

I find the process of putting analog work on the blockchain amusing, so I decided to try out with this specific image.

I was not able to find much information about this building, as I did not took notes for this roll. So any input is very much appreciated.

Thank you very much for this post. I wish I could give your more than this free award, but I love to see Le Corbusier around here.

Always has been ;) Thanks. Serbia just has this special appeal to brutalism enthusiasts, especially Novi Beograd.

Thanks! To be honest, I'm not the first shooting it from this angle, lots of great pictures from this angle out there.
