This is a closer view of the original portion of Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Chuch. Here you can see where the rose windows were blown out, and the shrapnel damage on the outer walls.
This was taken with a handheld (string monopod) Sputnik on Kodak E-100.

Jim Harp “Surdo Player”
Photographed at the 2023 Coney Island Mermaid Parade. TL-120 with Vivitar 285H fill flash, Provia 100F pushed one stop. The biggest challenge at the Mermaid Parade is getting a shot that doesn’t have another photographer cutting in front of you!
Jim Harp – Double Trouble
Photographed at the Air Power museum in Farmingdale NY, October 2019. TL120 with Vivitar 285H fill flash. Ilford Pan-f, DR-5 processing. DR5 suggests rating Ilford Pan F at ISO 20 so this was probably a half second exposure.
Jim Harp – Tibetan Buddhist Temple, Mussorie India
There is a thriving Tibetan community in Mussorie India. This was photographed in 2012 with a TL-120 with a Vivitar 285H fill flash. Provia 100F pushed one stop.
Jim Harp – Hailey and the Excalibur
Photographed at a “Tilted Kilt” car show in Bolingbrook Illinois, August 2023. TL-120 with Vivitar 285H fill-flash. Provia 100F pushed one stop.
Covid Road Trip #1 was submitted to loop d24 of the Dragon Folio.
As soon as the borders to the US opened, I booked tickets for “The Presidents’ Heads”. My visit there took place in November of 2021. I met a lot of nice photographers at the Heads. A pair of them told me about this site that would eventually become COVID Road Trip #2 in April of 2022; “Old Car City” in White, Georgia. 4700 vehicles from 1918 to 1972 slowly being reclaimed by nature. It’s well-documented on YouTube.
“Twitter Barn” – Ever wonder where Elon Mollusk got the inspiration for his inventive re-naming of the Twitter platform? It was from this very barn, somewhere near the border of two States, on the way down to Georgia. TL-120-55, and some expired colour film. Could have been Provia 100F.
“Old Car City – Ford Detail” – I think this is an emblematic example of my work. Sputnik, Superpan 200.
“’50 Buick OCC” – I love the 1950 Buick. GM only made that grill style for one year. Sputnik, Superpan 200.
“’50 Buick Old Car City, GA” – A different 1950 Buick. Shallow depth of field, scratch on the film. Sputnik, Superpan 200.

I had a roll of Velvia 100 and finally got a subject I thought would benefit.
Shot with my TL120.
To get closer to the cars in the pits, I bought a pit pass, a couple of races ago. I think this was Marco Andretti, but there is nothing to confirm it in the image. Only my memory.
Shot with Provia 100f in my TL120.
As we walked through the main palazzo in Syracuse, I noticed a barber shop and knew that I had to take a 3D shot of it. The barber was in the middle of shaving someone, so the composition with the mirrors and lighting was amazing. We were headed to another location and I took note of the shop as we passed by to come back to it later. Upon my return, it was of course closed, the barber was gone, and the lights were shut off. Regardless, I put my Sputnik up to the window and as you can see me in the shot, I took the photo. Still a fun shot to take but having the barber there working would have been much better. Shot with my Sputnik on Fuji Provia 100f.
Just outside of Syracuse is a collection of Roman ruins within the Neapolis Archeological Park. Within the park there are many sites to check out, including this Amphitheater built around 212 BC. It is the 3rd largest Amphitheater in Italy. It was in much disrepair and had been used as a quarry at some point by the Spaniards. It was just a shell of what it used to be. I tried to get the best viewpoint to show it’s size from the upper level. Having shot it in 3D, this does give it some of that ‘depth’ that it requires to show it’s true size. Shot with my Sputnik on Fuji Provia 100f.
