From Behind the Lens
Travel: Puerto Rico – Film
March 17, 2026

I never travel without a film camera or possibly two. This trip I decided to travel with 2 amazing cameras, my 1959 Leica M3 SS, paired with the 50mm DR and the 35mm Summaron for my 35mm work, and the 1958 Rolleiflex 3.5 F and its 75mm Carl Zeiss Planar lens.

These 2 cameras let me slow down and chill. Being a photographer, chimping can be a problem with digital cameras, film voids that whole urge and lets me enjoy the moment, that’s probably why I love it so much. The film I took with me on this trip was Kodak Gold 200, Ektar 100 and Portra 400. Hope you enjoy the results.
