Emotional one, taken with some of last rolls of Fotokemika Efke R 50 (Expired in 2013). I’m Croatian and this was a Croatian film, so I’m emotional, there are still few rolls left. I will cherish them, since I really like this film, too bad I never have privilege to tried R 25 and IR820.
Taken in Ika, Croatia. It just under "Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management" building.

Name inspired by album "Symbolic" of a band name Death and music of Chuck Schuldiner, who passed away in 2001.

Of a time in life
