Well, we’...
Where the Hasselblad love started
long, long time ago, I can still remember how—
Hang on, let me start again…
When I were a lad, mankind did something utterly astonishing: men walked on the moon.
For a 13-year-old science geek, staying up till <mumble> o’clock in the morning to watch this historic event was possibly the most exciting thing that’s ever happened to me.
For a 13-year-old budding photographer, the cameras that Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were wielding held a strong...
