SUMMARY

Shooting a rocket launch at 1:30 a.m. from Morro Bay, photographing a trip to Maui with a $35 underwater film camera, and spending a week with a Lotus Emira press car on a dry lake bed: Willem Verbeeck packed a lot into the last couple of months, and this video covers all three projects. He's gone back multiple times, timing trips around launch windows. The Maui segment centers on a Minolta Weathermatic camera Verbeeck picked up on eBay for $35. The SX-70 results from that shoot are some of the more surprising images in the video, and Verbeeck makes a strong case for what instant film can do in the right conditions.
