Capture the magic moment

Due to the business trip and study, I want to record many things during the journey to leave some memory for myself.

A few years ago, under the introduction of my friend, I bought a classic Olympus film camera and fall in love immediately. Personally, I think that automated and commercialized products usually erase the plasticity of things. Otherwise , manual stuff can discover the possibility of things. I am enjoy the discovery process and be satisfied and surprised by the results.

It's like enjoying specialty coffee. I like to use the filter manual brewing method to express those special coffees with exquisite flavor through technique and brewing date, rather than pouring coffee beans into automatic coffee machines or American coffee machines.

This time, I want to share a video taken by world champion barista James Hoffmann in 2007. This is not a video about coffee, but about develop the film with coffee. You can click the link here to watch.

Although this method can only obtain black and white images, compared with traditional method, the effect of this is not ideal. However, He fully embodies the coffee man’s exploration and experimentation spirit and shows the beauty of coffee.
